Work Step by Step
All numbers that can be represented by points on the number line are called real numbers.
A real number can be negative, zero, or positive.
On a number line,
negative numbers are to the left of zero, positives to the right.
and the distance of a number a to 0 is its absolute value, $|a|.$
Graphing a number on the number line means placing a dot on the number line,
at the correct distance and at the correct side of zero.
