Question

two numbers are graphed on the number line below. suppose a third number, n, is graphed between the two numbers already on the number line. which pair of inequalities about n is true? -10 -8 -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 8 10 n > -6 and n < 8 n < -6 and n < 8 n < -6 and n > 8 n > -6 and n > 8

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the two numbers

The two numbers on the number line are -6 (left dot) and 8 (right dot).

Step2: Analyze the position of \( n \)

Since \( n \) is between -6 and 8, it must be greater than -6 ( \( n > -6 \) ) and less than 8 ( \( n < 8 \) ).

Answer:

\( n > -6 \) and \( n < 8 \) (the first option)
