Opposite Integers

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

Integers that are the same distance from zero are OPPOSITE integers.

-3 +3

-3 and +3 are opposites because they are both 3 units from zero

3 units 3 units

Absolute Value

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

The absolute value of a number tells how far an integer is from zero.

The symbol for absolute value is I I

I 2 I = I - 4 I = 2 units from zero 4 units from zero

Absolute Value

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

Find the absolute value of :

I - 25 I I 43 I I - 768 I= 25 = 43 = 768

Comparing

Positive Integers are like money you have.

The higher the positive number the richer you are.

Negative Integers are like money you owe. The higher the negative number the poorer you are

OppositesPositive integersPositive integers have an opposite

Negative integer. Opposites are the same distance from 0 on the

number line in opposite directions.

Ex.opposite of -16 _______opposite of +4 _______ opposite of -67 _______opposite of +35 _______

OrderThe number line can also help you put integers in

order.

If the numbers are written down as they would If the numbers are written down as they would appear on the number line, they will be in order appear on the number line, they will be in order from least to greatestfrom least to greatest.

-5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 +1 +2 +3 +4 +5 +6

Order from least to greatest.
