Answer:
2 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since P is at -4 and you want a number that is 6 1/2 units away from it. You are either adding 6 1/2 to it or subtracting 6 1/2 to that number.
-4 + 6 1/2 = 2 1/2
-4 - 6 1/2 = -10 1/2
Also if you count 6 and 1/2 notches in either directions from -4, you will also get both of those answers.
The multiple choice only gives you the 2 1/2 option so that is the one they are looking for.
