Question

the number line shows an unknown number, v.
is v + 1 positive or negative?
positive
negative
submit

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the position of \( v \)

From the number line, \( v \) is to the right of \( 1 \), so \( v>1 \).

Step2: Determine the sign of \( v + 1 \)

If \( v>1 \), then adding \( 1 \) to \( v \) (i.e., \( v + 1 \)) will be greater than \( 1+1 = 2 \), which is positive. So \( v + 1 \) is positive.

Answer:

positive
