Question

applications of number lines: account balance line
number lines can help us understand money ______________.
when money is credited, or debited, to your account, the amount of money
increases decreases. an ______________ shift on the number line represents an
increase in the amount of money you have.
think of the number 0 on the number line as a condition in which you have ____ money.
when money is debited, or ______________, from your account (such as when you
withdraw cash), your account balance shifts ______________ on the number line.
applications of number lines: rulers
the marks on a tape measure are similar to those on a ____________ ____________.
to measure the length of a workbench, place the ____-centimeter mark of the tape measure at one edge of
the bench and extend the tape measure to the other _______ of the bench. read the number on the tape
measure ____________ where the workbench ends to find the ____________ of the workbench.
summary
what is another real - world application for number lines?

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
Account Balance Line Section:
  1. First blank (main idea): Number lines help understand money "transactions" (or "movements", "changes") as we track credits/debits.
  2. Second blank (opposite of credited): When money is credited (added), the opposite is "debited" (but wait, the original has a wrong strike—actually, "credited" means added, so the other action is "deposited"? Wait, no—credit is adding, debit is subtracting. Wait, the sentence: "When money is credited, or ____, to your account"—wait, maybe a typo. Wait, credit is adding, so maybe "deposited" (since crediting is like depositing). Then the amount "increases" (so the first circle should be "increases" (the unstruck one is correct? Wait, the original has "increases" unstruck, "decreases" struck. Then an "upward" shift (since positive numbers are up on the number line) represents an increase.
  3. Third blank (0 on number line): 0 means "no" (or "zero") money (balanced, neither positive nor negative).
  4. Fourth and fifth blanks (debited): When money is debited (subtracted, like withdrawn), it's "removed" from the account, and the balance shifts "downward" (toward negative numbers) on the number line.
Rulers Section:
  1. First blank: Marks on a tape measure are similar to those on a "number line" (since rulers are like number lines for length).
  2. Second blank: To measure, place the "0"-centimeter mark at one edge.
  3. Third blank: Extend to the other "edge" of the bench.
  4. Fourth and fifth blanks: Read the number where the bench ends to find the "length" of the workbench (the mark is "at" where it ends, so "at" and "length").
Summary:

Another real - world application: Thermometers (they use a number line to show temperature, with positive and negative values, and changes in temperature can be tracked like movements on a number line), or elevations (sea level is 0, positive for above, negative for below, and changes in elevation are like shifts on a number line).

Answer:

Account Balance Line:
  • First main blank: transactions (or movements)
  • "credited, or deposited" (correction: if the intended is deposit as credit - like), amount "increases", "upward" shift.
  • 0 means "no" (zero) money.
  • Debited: "removed", shifts "downward".
Rulers:
  • Tape measure marks similar to "number line" marks.
  • Place "0" - centimeter mark.
  • Other "edge" of the bench.
  • Read the number "at" where it ends to find "length".
Summary Example:

Another application: Thermometers (tracking temperature changes as shifts on a number - line - like scale), or measuring distances in sports (like a running track marked with a number line for distance).

(Note: The original worksheet has some formatting/typo issues, but the above is the intended filling based on number line concepts for money (account balance) and length (rulers).)
