Introduction to Integers (Oppositeness and Representation)
1. Grade 7 – Mathematics
Quarter I
INTRODUCTION TO INTEGERS
(OPPOSITENESS AND REPRESENTATION)
2. •use negative numbers in practical
situations;
•represent integers on the number
line; and
•compare and arrange integers in
ascending and descending order.
3. “What’s the OPPOSITE?”
1. cold
2. down
3. north
4. rising
5. decrease
6. backward
7. below
8. interesting

falling

5. Use signed number to represent each
situation.
1. The price of the liter of gasoline rises from
by Php 1.50.
2. The temperature of the freezer is set at 15°
below zero.
3. Five points are deducted from a student’s
score in a test.
+Php1.50
-15°
-5 points
6. NUMBER LINE

7. INTEGERS
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8-8 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1
• number line tells us which number has a
greater value.
• the one to the right is ALWAYS greater
than the one to the left.
8. COMPARING INTEGERS
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8-8 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1
5 is greater than 1
0 is greater than -5
-2 is less than 0
-8 is less than -3
5 >1
0 > -5
-2 < 0
-8 < -3
9. ORDERING INTEGERS
5, -1, 8, -4, 2, 1
0, 6, -7, 3, -4, -1
-2, 5, -3, 1, -10,-6
-4,
Arrange the following in INCREASING order.
INCREASING ORDER
(ascending order)
- from least to greatest
DECREASING ORDER
(descending order)
- from greatest to least
-1, 1, 2, 5, 8
-7, -4, -1, 0, 3, 6
-10,-6, -3,-2,1, 5
10. Test Yourself.
Use signed number to represent each situation.
1. An airplane flies at 20 000 feet above sea
level.
2. Antarctica recorded a temperature of 36°
below zero.
3. Ten points are added from a student’s
score in a summative test.
