Refer to the number line.

On the number line, label the points that are 4 units away from 0.

If you fold the number line so that a vertical crease goes through 0, the points you label would match up. Explain why this happens.

On the number line, label the points that are \frac{5}{2} units from 0. What is the distance between these points?

Evaluate each expression.
