kens predicted temperature for april is 7°c. his prediction for may is 2°c higher than april. he used the number line to solve the problem, starting at 0, moving right to 7, and then moving 2 units to the left. explain kens error.
Answer
# Brief Explanations:
Since May's temperature is 2°C higher than April's 7°C, we should move right (to represent an increase) on the number - line. But Ken moved 2 units to the left which represents a decrease.
# Answer:
Ken should have moved 2 units to the right on the number - line to represent an increase in temperature, not 2 units to the left.
