The document discusses absolute value and integer addition and subtraction. It provides examples of finding the absolute value of integers and performing operations involving integers with absolute values. The key points are:
- The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on the number line.
- When adding or subtracting integers, follow the rules: same signs add, different signs subtract, and start with the greater number while following its sign.
7. Example 1:
Find each absolute value.
a. | 5 |
Answer:
Since 5 is 5 units from zero, the absolute value of
5 is 5.
-6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6
The is the
between that number and
zero on a number line.
8. Example 2:
Find each absolute value.
a. | −5 |
Answer:
Since −5 is 5 units from zero, the absolute value
of −5 is 5.
-6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6
The is the
between that number and
zero on a number line.
9. Example 3:
Find each absolute value.
a. | 3 |
Answer:
Since 3 is 3 units from zero, the absolute value of
3 is 3.
-6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6
The is the
between that number and
zero on a number line.
10. Example 4:
Find each absolute value.
a. | −3 |
Answer:
Since −3 is 3 units from zero, the absolute value
of −3 is 3.
-6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6
The is the
between that number and
zero on a number line.
11. Example 5:
Find each absolute value.
a. | 0 |
Answer:
The Absolute value of 0 is 0.
-6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6
The is the
between that number and
zero on a number line.
