Absolute Value of Integers
The absolute value is the distance a number is from zero on the number line, regardless of direction.
Distance and absolute value are always non-negative (positive or zero).

Comparing Positive IntegersAn integer can be equal to; less than ; or greater than another integer.
The symbols that we use are:
Equals "=" Less than "<" Greater than ">"
For example:
4 = 4 4 < 6 4 > 2
When using < or >, remember that the smaller side points at the smaller number.

Comparing Negative Integers
The greater the absolute value of a negative integer, the smaller the integer. That's because it is farther from zero, but in the negative direction.
For example:
-4 = -4 -4 > -6 -4 < -2

Comparing Negative Integers
One way to think of this is in terms of money. You'd rather have $20 than $10.
But you'd rather owe someone $10 than $20.
Owing money can be thought of as having a negative amount of money, since you need to get that much money back just to get to zero.

Integer Addition

Slide 69 / 237
Symbols
We will use "+" to indicate addition and "-" for subtraction.
Parentheses will also be used to show things more clearly. For instance, if we want to add -3 to 4 we will write: 4 + (-3), which is clearer than 4 + -3.
Or if we want to subtract -4 from -5 we will write:-5 - (-4), which is clearer than -5 - -4.
Slide 70 / 237
While this section is titled "Integer Addition" we're going to learn here how to both add and subtract integers using the number line.
Addition and subtraction are inverse operations (they have the opposite effect). If you add a number and then subtract the same number you haven't changed anything.
Addition undoes subtraction, and vice versa.

Integer Addition: Using Absolute Values
You can always add using the number line.
But if we study our results, we can see how to get the same answers without having to draw the number line.
We'll get the same answers, but more easily.

We can see some patterns here that allow us to create rules to get these answers without drawing.
Integer Addition: Using Absolute Values
Slide 86 / 237
To add integers with the same sign 1. Add the absolute value of the integers. 2. The sign stays the same.
10 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-103 + 4 = 7
-4 + (-5) = -9 10 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10
3 + 4 = 7; both signs are positive; so 3 + 4 = 7
4 + 5 = 9; both signs are negative; so -4 + (-5) = -9
Integer Addition: Using Absolute Values
Slide 87 / 237
Interpreting the Absolute Value Approach
The reason the absolute value approach works, if the signs of the integers are the same, is:
The absolute value is the distance you travel in a direction, positive or negative.
If both numbers have the same sign, the distances will add together, since they're both asking you to travel in the same direction.
If you walk one mile west and then two miles west, you'll be three miles west of where you started.
Slide 88 / 237
To add integers with different signs 1. Find the difference of the absolute values of the integers. 2. Keep the sign of the integer with the greater absolute value.
10 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-4 + 9 = 5
10 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-105 + (-7) = -2
9 - 4 = 5; 9 > 4, and 9 is positive; so -4 + 9 = 5
7 - 5 = 2; 7 > 5 and 9 is negative; so 5 + (-7) = -2
Integer Addition: Using Absolute Values
Slide 89 / 237
Interpreting the Absolute Value Approach
If the signs of the integers are different:
For the 2nd leg of your trip you're traveling in the opposite direction of the 1st leg, undoing some of your original travel. The total distance you are from your starting point will be the difference between the two distances.
The sign of the answer must be the same as that of the larger number, since that's the direction you traveled farther.
If you walk one mile west and then two miles east, you'll be one mile east of where you started.

Turning Subtraction Into Addition

Slide 98 / 237
Subtracting IntegersSubtracting a number is the same as adding it's opposite.
We can see this from the number line, remembering our rules for directions. Compare these two problems: 8 - 5 and 8 + (-5).
For "8 - 5" we move 8 steps to the right and then move 5 steps to the left, since the negative sign tells us to move in the opposite direction that we would for +5.
For "8 + (-5)" we move 8 steps to the right, and then 5 steps to the left since we're adding -5.
Either way, we end up at +3.

For "8 + 2" we move 8 steps to the right, and then 2 steps to the right since we're adding 2.
Either way, we end up at +10.

· Changing the subtraction sign to addition.
· Changing the integer after the subtraction sign to its opposite.

SymbolsIn the past, you may have used "x" to indicate multiplication. For example "3 times 4" would have been written as 3 x 4.
However, that will be a problem in the future since the letter "x" is used in Algebra as a variable.
There are two ways we will indicate multiplication: 3 times 4 will be written as either 3∙4 or 3(4).
Other commonly used symbols for multiplication include: * [ ] { } ( ) For example "3 times 4" could be written as: 3*4 3[4] 3{4} 3(4)
Slide 122 / 237
Parentheses
The second method of showing multiplication, 3(4), is to put the second number in parentheses.
Parentheses have also been used for other purposes. When we want to add -3 to 4 we will write that as 4 + (-3), which is clearer than 4 + -3.
Also, whatever operation is in parentheses is done first. The way to write that we want to subtract 4 from 6 and then divide by 2 would be (6 - 4) / 2 = 1. Removing the parentheses would yield 6 - 4/2 = 4, since we work from left to right.

Multiplying Integers
Multiplication is just a quick way of writing multiple additions.
These are all equivalent:
3·43 +3 + 3 + 3 4 + 4 + 4
they all equal 12.
Slide 124 / 237
Multiplying Integers
We know how to add with a number line.
Let's just do the same thing with multiplication by just doing repeated addition.
To do that, we'll start at zero and then just keep adding: either 3+3+3+3 or 4+4+4.
We should get the same result either way, 12.

Multiplying Negative Integers
Let's use the same approach to determine rules for multiplying negative integers.
If we have 4 x (-3) we know we can think of that as (-3) added to itself 4 times. But we don't know how to think of adding 4 to itself -3 times, so let's just get our answer this way:
4 x (-3) = (-3)+(-3)+(-3)+(-3)
Slide 128 / 237
10 2 3-17 -1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-13-15-16 -14 -12
4 x (-3) On the Number Line
4 x (-3) = (-3)+(-3)+(-3)+(-3)
So we can see that 4 x (-3) = -12

Multiplying Negative Integers
We can't add something to itself a negative number of times; we don't know what that means.
But we can think of our rule from earlier, where a (-) sign tells us to reverse direction.
10 2 3-17 -1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-13-15-16 -14 -12
-5 - (-2) = -5 + 2
Slide 131 / 237
Multiplying Negative Integers
So if we think of (-4)(-3) as -(4)(-3) we can then see that the answer will be the opposite of (-12): +12
Each negative sign makes us reverse direction once, so two multiplied together gets us back to the positive direction.

Every time you multiply by a negative number you change the sign.

Slide 147 / 237
Dividing IntegersDivision is the inverse operation of multiplication, just like subtraction is the inverse of addition.
When you divide an integer, by a number, you are finding out how many of that second number would have to add together to get the first number.
For instance, since 5∙2 = 10, that means that I could divide 10 into 5 2's, or 2 5's.
This is just what we did on the number line for multiplication, but backwards.
Let's try 10 ÷ 2
Slide 148 / 237

10 2 3-17 -1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-13-15-16 -14 -12
-12 ÷ 3 On the Number LineThis can be read as what would each step have to be if 3 of them was to take you to -12.
Each red arrow represents a step of 3, so we can see that -12 ÷ 3 = -4 (The answer is
negative because the steps are to the left.)
Slide 151 / 237
-15 ÷ 3 = -5
We know that -5(3) = -15, so it makes sense that -15 ÷ 3 = -5.
We also know 3(-5) = -15. So, what is the value of -15 ÷ -5
The value must be positive 3, because 3(-5) = -15
-153 = -5

Powers of IntegersBases and Exponents
When "raising a number to a power",
The number we start with is called the base, the number we raise it to is called the exponent.
The entire expression is called a power.

Slide 161 / 237
When a number is written as a power, it is written in exponential form. If you multiply the base and simplify the answer, the number is now written in standard form.
EXAMPLE:

Exponent Rules - Multiplying
You can only directly multiply numbers which have exponents if the bases are the same. If the bases are the same, just add the exponents.
(43)(42) = 4(3+2) = 45
Here's why: (43)(42) = (4x4x4)(4x4) = 4x4x4x4x4 = 45
This will be true for any base, not just 4, so this rule always works.
