Objective: Graph Integers On A Number Line and Find Absolute Value

This document discusses integers and absolute values. It defines negative integers as numbers to the left of zero, positive integers as numbers to the right of zero, and zero as neither positive nor negative. Examples are provided of graphing integers on a number line and evaluating expressions involving absolute values.

Integers and Absolute Values

Objective: Graph integers on a number line and find absolute value.

Example 1. Study the pattern of the following subtraction sentences.

51=4 52=3 53=2 54=1 55=0 56=?

Example 1. Study the pattern of the following subtraction sentences.

51=4 52=3 53=2 54=1 55=0 5 6 = -1 This is an example of a negative number. A negative number is less than zero.

Integers

Integers
Numbers to the left of zero are less than zero.

Integers
Numbers to the left of zero are less than zero. Numbers to the right of zero are more than zero.

Integers
Numbers to the left of zero are less than zero. Numbers to the right of zero are more than zero.

The numbers 1, -2, -3, are called negative integers. The number negative 3 is written 3.

Example 2a: Name the coordinates of D, E, and B

-6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1

Example 2b: Graph points F, U, and N on a number line if F has coordinate 1, U has coordinate 3, and N has coordinate 4.

-6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1

Absolute Value

Absolute Value

In words: The absolute value of a number is the distance the number is from the zero point on the number line.
In symbols: |4| = 4 and |-4| = 4

Example 3: Simplify
a. |9| + |-9|

Example 3: Simplify
a. |9| + |-9| |9| + |-9| = 9 + 9

Example 3: Simplify
a. |9| + |-9|| |9| + |-9| = 9 + 9 = 18

Example 3: Simplify
a. |9| + |-9|| |9| + |-9| = 9 + 9 = 18 b. |13| - |-2|

Example 3: Simplify
a. |9| + |-9|| |9| + |-9| = 9 + 9 = 18 b. |13| - |-2| |13| - |-2| = 13 2

Example 3: Simplify
a. |9| + |-9|| |9| + |-9| = 9 + 9 = 18 b. |13| - |-2| |13| - |-2| = 13 2 = 11

Example 4: Evaluate the expression |x| - 7 if x = - 13

Example 4: Evaluate the expression |x| - 7 if x = - 13 |x| - 7 = |-13| - 7

Example 4: Evaluate the expression |x| - 7 if x = - 13 |x| - 7 = |-13| - 7 = 13 7

Example 4: Evaluate the expression |x| - 7 if x = - 13 |x| - 7 = |-13| - 7 = 13 7 =6

Assignment: 18 46 even, 47 60 all
