    Study Notes

    Understanding Integers

    • Absolute Value: The absolute value of an integer is its distance from zero on the number line, disregarding its sign.

    • Comparative Values:

      • For positive integers, the larger absolute value indicates a larger integer.
      • For negative integers, the smaller absolute value indicates a larger integer.
      • Positive integers are greater than negative integers.
    • Number Line Representation:

      • Positive integers are to the right of zero (origin), while negative integers are to the left.
      • Numbers increase as you move from left to right.

    Integer Operations

    • Addition Rules:

      • Adding two positive integers results in a positive integer.
      • Adding two negative integers results in a negative integer.
      • Adding a positive and a negative integer results in a positive integer if the positive has a greater absolute value, or a negative integer if the negative has a greater absolute value.
      • Equal absolute values of opposite signs yield zero.
    • Subtraction Method: Subtracting an integer can be performed by adding the integer's opposite sign.

    • Combining Multiple Integers: Sum positive integers and negative integers separately before combining the results.

    Multiplication and Division of Integers

    • Multiplication Principles:

      • The product of two integers with the same sign is positive.
      • The product of two integers with opposite signs is negative.
    • Multiplied by Zero: Any integer multiplied by zero is zero, while multiplied by one remains unchanged.

    • Product of Multiple Integers: The product can be calculated by multiplying any two integers first, then the result with the third integer.

    • Division Principles:

      • Dividing integers of the same sign results in a positive quotient.
      • Dividing integers of opposite signs results in a negative quotient.

    Exercises and Evaluation

    • Absolute Values Exercise: Practice finding the absolute values of given integers.
    • Evaluative Expressions: Solve expressions using absolute values and basic operations.
    • Comparative Exercises: Fill in blanks comparing integers, practicing inequality symbols.

    Summary of Integer Values

    • Provide lists of integers within specific ranges.
    • Write integers in order, both ascending and descending.

    Key Integer Operations Examples

    • Addition Examples: Compute results of adding positive and negative integers.
    • Multiplication Examples: Show results of multiplying integers of various signs.
    • Division Examples: Solve simple division problems with positive and negative integers.

    Practice Problems

    • Create problems involving integer addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
    • Encourage the application of learned rules in various scenarios.
