Slide 2 The upside of negativity Subtracting Negative Integers! Video # 8 about integers Slide 3 Negative numbers. Negative numbers are the opposite of positive numbers. +++ - - - +++ - - - Slide 4 Slide 5 6 + -2 Is the same as 6 2 Which is 4. If this is confusing, review the earlier lesson on adding integers. Slide 6 -- change two things to keep balance Change subtraction to adding Change the sign of the next number Heres your starting point is it positive or negative? Slide 7 8 2 = 8 + - 2 = 6 same sign, add and keep different sign, subtract! Keep the sign of the bigger number then youll be exact Slide 8 15 5 = 5 15 = 9 8 = 8 9 = 20 5 = 5 20 = Slide 9 15 5 = 5 15 = 9 8 = 8 9 = 20 5 = 15 5 20 = -15 Slide 10 -4 5 = -4 + -5 = -9 -4 -9 What it means is more important than what it looks like If you have already lost 4 (pounds, pickles, whatever!) and you lose five more, youve lost 9. Slide 11 Review with these problems be sure youre doing the right operation. Watch for trick questions! -2 2 is 4. 8 5-50 2510 - 9 -1 + 6-30 + 209 - 10 1 - 6100 5 -100 - 1 5 10 -9 + 101 - 100 Slide 12 Review with these problems be sure youre doing the right operation. 8 5-50 2510 - 9 -1 + 6-30 + 209 - 10 1 + -6100 5 -100 - 1 5 10 -9 + 101 - 100 Slide 13 Review with these problems be sure youre doing the right operation. 8 5 =3-50 + -25=-75 10 + -9= 1 -1 + 6 =5-30 + 20= -10 9 + 10= -1 1 + 6= -5100 + -5 =95-100 + -1 =-101 5 10= -5 -9 + 10 = 11 100 = -99 Slide 14 Slide 15 8 1 = 7, right?... But thats subtracting a positive number. Slide 16 8 1 = 7 we take it away. what is 8 (-1)? Whats the opposite of taking away? Adding. Im going to change that to adding the opposite and go the *opposite direction. 8 + (regular, good old fashioned POSITIVE) 1. Slide 17 The soap opera version? Subtraction is taking away, right? A negative thing is bad, right? If I take away a bad thing like that nasty smelling thing in my refrigerator thats like *giving* me a *good* thing ADDING. Slide 18 The difference between 8 and 3 is 5, and 8-3 is 5. The difference between 8 and negative one is 9. 8 is nine more than negative one. 8 Slide 19 I get to add Slide 20 (Honestly the rules dont change ) Slide 21 You have to change two things the subtraction to addition, and the number from negative to positive. 6 2 = -6 2 = 6 - -2 = -6 - -2 = Slide 22 You have to change two things the subtraction to addition, and the number from negative to positive. 6 2 = 4-6 2 = -8 6 - -2 = 8-6 - -2 = -4 Slide 23 Remember ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS Change two things. Adding is *not* the same as subtracting; Forward is not the same as backwards. But if you turn around **again** youre back where you started. Slide 24 10 (-1)-10 - -1 3 - -3-3 - (-3) 4 (-4)-4 - -4 5 - (-5)-4 - (-5) This will matter more when youre learning multiplication: Parentheses are used to wrap a number or expression to show things that belong together. It can be confusing; if two numbers are written like this (3) (4), that means to multiply them. Its not because of the parentheses, though; its because math people decided that if they didnt write anything, it meant to multiply. Slide 25 10 (-1)= 11-10 - -1 = -9 3 - -3=6-3 - (-3)= 0 4 (-4)= 8-4 - -4 = 0 5 - (-5)= 10-5 - (-5) = 0 Slide 26 Heres another example where what it means is more important than what it looks like. 8 8 is zero 139 139 is zero anytime you take away exactly the same thing you started with, youre back at zero even if its a negative number. So, negative 133 minus negative 133 is 0. -3 - (-3)= 0 -34343 - (-34343) = 0 -4 - -4 = 0 -5 - (-5) = 0 Slide 27 Two main rules if youre adding, Same sign, add and keep different sign subtract keep the sign of the bigger number then youll be exact. If youre subtracting, change two things so you are adding the opposite. (remember the trick questions : -2 -2 = -4 -2 (-2) = 0 Slide 28 -5 + 5 = -5 5 = 5 + 5 = 5 5 = 5 (-5) = -5 (-5) = 100 1 = - 100 99 = 100 (-99) = 75 74 = - 74 (-1) = - 13 + 13 = Slide 29 -5 + 5 = 0 -5 5 = -10 5 + 5 = 10 5 5 = 0 5 (-5) =10 -5 (-5) = 0 100 1 = 99 - 100 99 = -199 100 (-99) = 199 75 74 = 1 - 74 (-1) =- 73 - 13 + 13 = 0 Slide 30 -5 + 5 = -5 5 = 5 + 5 = 5 5 = 5 (-5) = -5 (-5) = You make up six problems using that as a model, and explain why the first and last ones add up to zero.
