Kelly uses point p to represent the sum of 3.6 + (-2.4) on the number line. 3.6+(-2.4) =P
Kelly says that point p is plotted to the right of both 3.6 and -24 on the number line because addition means you should move right on the
number line.
• Explain why Kelly's reasoning is incorrect.
• Explain how the location of p on the number line is related to the locations of 3.6 and -2.4 on the number line,
• Determine the value of point p.
