Full solution

Q. Which of the following is a correct interpretation of the expression 613 6-13 ?\newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) Start at 1313 on the number line and move 66 to the left.\newline(B) Start at 1313 on the number line and move 66 to the right.\newline(C) Start at 66 on the number line and move 1313 to the left.\newline(D) Start at 66 on the number line and move 1313 to the right.
  1. Understand expression: We need to understand the expression 6136-13. This expression means we start with the number 66 and subtract 1313 from it.
  2. Visualize on number line: To visualize this on a number line, we would start at the number 66 and move to the left (since subtracting means moving to the left on the number line) 1313 units.
  3. Check given options: Now we check the given options to see which one matches our understanding. Option (C) says "Start at 66 on the number line and move 1313 to the left." This matches our interpretation of the expression 6136-13.
  4. Confirm matching option: We can confirm that none of the other options match our interpretation. Option (A) incorrectly starts at 1313 and moves left, option (B) incorrectly starts at 1313 and moves right, and option (D) incorrectly starts at 66 and moves right.
