On the number line, the number p is twice as many units from -2 as -2 is from 2. If p is less than –2, what is the value of p ?
Choose the correct choice from the following:
A) –18	B) –10	C) –6	D) 10	E) 14
Distance between -2 and 2 = 4   Since number p is twice as many units from -2 as -2 is from 2   , therefore p can be -10 Since , p is less than -2 ,   the value of p = -10   Answer –10
