Create a scale in order to graph the numbers −12 through 12 on a number line. Choose an integer between −5 and −10. Label it 𝑅 on the number line you just created. Complete the following tasks.
  1. What is the opposite of 𝑅? Label it 𝑄.
  2. State a positive integer greater than 𝑄. Label it 𝑇.
  3. State a negative integer greater than 𝑅. Label it 𝑆.
  4. State a negative integer less than 𝑅. Label it 𝑈.
  5. State an integer between 𝑅 and 𝑄. Label it 𝑉.

Marcos was playing the dice game from today’s lesson with his friends to practice his number plotting skills.  He rolled an 8 and Camille rolled a 10.  Then the two players were wondering, which value is larger: the opposite of Camille’s roll or the opposite of Marcos’ roll? Use a number line to support your reasoning.
