Study Notes
Integers and Absolute Value
- Absolute Value: The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on the number line. It is always represented as a positive value.
- Symbol for Absolute Value: The absolute value of a number is denoted by vertical bars "|" on either side of the number. For example, |-5| = 5.
Operations with Integers
-
Adding and Subtracting Integers:
- When adding integers with the same sign, add their absolute values and keep the same sign.
- When adding integers with different signs, subtract their absolute values and keep the sign of the larger absolute value.
- Subtracting an integer is the same as adding its opposite.
-
Multiplying and Dividing Integers:
- If the signs of the two numbers are the same, the product or quotient is positive.
- If the signs of the two numbers are different, the product or quotient is negative.
Number Line Understanding
- Number Line: A number line is a visual representation of numbers, where positive numbers are to the right of zero and negative numbers are to the left.
Real World Applications
- Temperature Changes: Negative integers represent temperatures below zero.
- Elevation: Negative integers can represent distances below sea level.
- Financial Transactions: Negative integers can represent money spent or lost.
Absolute Value
- The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero.
- The symbol for absolute value is two vertical bars: | |
- |3| = 3, because 3 is 3 units away from zero.
- |-9| = 9, because -9 is 9 units away from zero.
Integers and Number Line
- Integers are whole numbers, including negative numbers.
- A number line helps visualize positive and negative numbers.
- Numbers to the right of zero are positive.
- Numbers to the left of zero are negative.
Adding and Subtracting Integers
- Adding a positive number moves to the right on the number line.
- Adding a negative number moves to the left on the number line.
- Subtracting a positive number is the same as adding a negative number.
- Subtracting a negative number is the same as adding a positive number.
Word Problems and Integers
- Word problems can be represented using integers and operations.
- "Below zero" or "decrease" indicates a negative number or subtraction.
- "Above zero" or "increase" indicates a positive number or addition.
Integers and Absolute Value
- The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on the number line.
- The absolute value of a number is always positive.
- The symbols || are used to represent absolute value.
- Example: |-9| = 9
Addition and Subtraction of Integers
- Adding a positive number to another positive number results in a positive sum.
- Adding a negative number to another negative number results in a negative sum.
- Subtracting a positive number from another number is the same as adding the negative of that number.
- Example: 3 - 14 = 3 + (-14) = -11
Word Problems Involving Integers
- Temperature changes can be represented by integers. A decrease in temperature is represented by a negative integer, while an increase in temperature is represented by a positive integer.
- Elevations can be represented by integers. An elevation above sea level is represented by a positive integer, while an elevation below sea level is represented by a negative integer.
- Financial transactions can be represented by integers. A deposit is represented by a positive integer, while a withdrawal is represented by a negative integer.
Integers and Absolute Value
- Absolute Value is the distance of a number from zero on the number line. It is always a positive number.
- The symbol for absolute value is two vertical bars:
| |. -
|3| = 3because 3 is 3 units from zero. -
|-9| = 9because -9 is 9 units from zero.
Adding and Subtracting Integers
- Adding a positive number moves to the right on the number line.
- Adding a negative number moves to the left on the number line.
- Subtracting a positive number is the same as adding a negative number.
- Subtracting a negative number is the same as adding a positive number.
Real-World Applications of Integers
- Temperature changes: Decreases in temperature are represented by negative numbers.
- Elevation changes: Going down in elevation is represented by a negative number.
- Financial transactions: Spending money is represented by a negative number, earning money is represented by a positive number.
