An HVAC technician is monitoring the temperature of two industrial freezers in a warehouse. Freezer A is set to -12 degrees Fahrenheit and Freezer B is set to -18 degrees Fahrenheit. Which statement correctly compares the temperatures of the two freezers based on their positions on a horizontal number line?

A financial analyst is reviewing the net changes in department budgets. Match each inequality statement comparing two budget changes with the correct description of their relative positions on a horizontal number line.

True or False: On a horizontal number line, an integer that is located farther to the right is always the greater of the two numbers.

A project manager is reviewing the net variances of four different department budgets. The variances are: -$2,500, $1,000, -$5,000, and -$500. Arrange these values in order from least to greatest (from the value that would be farthest to the left to the value that would be farthest to the right on a horizontal number line).
