5. Following is the list of temperatures of five places in India on a particular day of the year.
(a) Write the temperatures of these places in the form of integers in the blank column.
| Place | Temperature | Integers |
|---|---|---|
| Siachin | 10°C Below 0°C | |
| Shimla | 2°C Below 0°C | |
| Ahmedabad | 10°C above 0°C | |
| Delhi | 12°C above 0°C | |
| Srinagar | 5°C below 0°C |
(b) Following is the number line representing the temperature in degree Celsius. Plot the name of the city against its temperature.

6.In each of the following pairs, which number is to the right of the other on the number line?
(a) 2, 9
(b) – 3, – 8
(c) 0, – 1
(d) – 11, 10
(e) – 6, 6
(f) 1, – 100
Write all the integers between the given pairs (write them in the increasing order.)
(a) 0 and – 7 =
(b) – 4 and 4 =
(c) – 8 and – 15 =
(d) – 30 and – 23 =
(a) Write four negative integers greater than – 20. =
(b) Write four integers less than – 10. =
For the following statements, write True (T) or False (F). If the statement is false, correct the statement.
(a) – 8 is to the right of – 10 on a number line.
(b) – 100 is to the right of – 50 on a number line.
-100 is to the left of -50 on a number line since, -50 > -100.
(c) Smallest negative integer is – 1.
We cannot find the value of the smallest negative integer. It goes till infinity.
(d) – 26 is greater than – 25.
-26 is smaller than -25.
10. Answer the questions for the following numberline.
(a) Which number will we reach if we move 4 numbers to the right of – 2?
(b) Which number will we reach if we move 5 numbers to the left of 1?
(c) If we are at – 8 on the number line, in which direction should we move to reach – 13?
(d) If we are at – 6 on the number line, in which direction should we move to reach – 1?
