Adding and Subtracting Real Numbers
objectives Add two numbers with the same sign. Add two numbers with different sign. Use the definition of subtraction. Use the rules for order of operations with real numbers. Translate words and phrases involving addition and
subtraction. Use signed numbers to interpret data.
Add the numbers. If both are positive, the sum is positive; if both are negative, the sum is negative.
Objective 1 Add two numbers with the same sign
Add two positive numbers: 3+6=
+3+6
Add two negative numbers: -3 + (-6)=
- 3 - 6
Find the absolute values of the numbers and subtract the lesser absolute value from the grater. Give the answer the same sign as the number having the grater absolute value
Objective 2 Add two numbers with the different sign
+8

Step 1 Draw an arrow from 0 to 8.
Step 2 Then draw a second arrow 5 units to the left to represent adding โ5.
Step 3 The second arrow ends at the sum 3.
Answer:
Example 3Use a number line to find .
Find the sum .

Objective 3 Subtracting real numbers
To subtract signed numbers, add the opposite.
(A.T.O.) and use the rules of addition.

Multiplicative property of -1 The product of any number and -1 is its called additive inverse.
For any number a, -1( a ) = a( -1 ) = - a
Example:
Division of real numbers
The quotient of two numbers having the same sign is positive.
The quotient of two numbers having different sign is negative.
