On a number line, suppose point E has a coordinate of 3, EG = 6. What are the possible coordinates of point G?

Question

(Type integers or decimals.)

Answer 1

6 is the distance from E to G: So, if E=3, G=9, as 9-3 = 6

If distance is the absolute value of the difference of G-E, then G could also be -3. the distance from -3 to +3 =6

9 or -3 for G make EG's distance 6
