* Represented with a + or no sign

2. What is a negative number?

2. It’s a number less than zero.

* Always written with a - sign

Understanding Integers

5. What are integers?

5. Integers are the set of all whole numbers and their opposite

6. What is absolute value?

6. An integer’s distance from 0 * Represented by I n I

* Never negative * Always positive

Negatives are always less than positives Opposites are the same #

but one is + and one is --

Absolute values are never negative

Is it positive or negative? Write the integer: A. I owe my friend $10.00

Graphing Opposites. Graph the integer and it’s opposite:

.

B. I live 100 feet above sea level

C. It’s 20 degrees below zero outside

D. I gained 15 yards in my football game

-4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4

Write the absolute value of:

1. I-2I =

2. I0I =

3. I5I =

4. I-4I =

5. I-1I =

Comparing and Ordering Integers

1. How do I compare integers?

1. Use a number line.

* Numbers to the left are less than number to the right

-4 2

Order: 2, -4, -1, 5, 0

-4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4

6 -4-14 -20-9 8

-4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5

3 4 12 14

2. Compare the following integers:

3. How do I order integers?

3. GRAPH them on a number line, then order them.

Comparing and Ordering IntegersComparing and Ordering Integers

4. Graph then order the following integers greatest to least:

-5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5

5. Graph and order the same integers least to greatest.

4. 5, -2, 1, -4, -1, 3

5. 5, -2, 1, -4, -1, 3

Solving Word Problems

1. How do I solve word problems?

1. 1. Read the problem until you understand what the question is.

2. List the important information

3. Make a plan: how are you going to solve the problem? Draw pictures, diagrams, etc. if necessary

1.03 Compare & order decimals 09-04-08

____________________________________________________

Ordering and Comparing Decimals:

1. What are the place values for decimals?

6 = thousandths place7 = ten-thousandths place3 = hundred-thousandths place

Ordering and Comparing Decimals:

2. How do I say a decimal number?

2. Always say the decimal as “and”

Say the number the same way you would if it wasn’t a decimal, then say the place value of the last digit

Example: 82.34 =

Eight two and thirty four hundredths

3. How do I compare decimals?

3. Line up all the decimals then compare each column left to right

4. Line up all the decimals then compare each column left to right

Example: 2.4, 1.9, 2.19 (L --> G)

5. Compare these decimals:

5. 1.1 1.01

2.354 2.6

5.5 5.98

6. Order these decimals L -> G:
