Welcome to the first Mrs.Oliver-created distance learning packet! This packet contains all of the

information you need to complete your math assignments for the week. You may choose to complete this packet during week 2 of distance learning in place of the district-created packet,

or you will complete this packet during week 3 of distance learning (after completing the district packets for weeks 1 and 2)

If you want to save paper, you only need to print page 2 of the packet to record your answers. Alternatively, you can write your answers (neatly, please!) on a sheet of notebook paper and

submit that instead.

A2: Adding and Subtracting Integers -----------------------------------------------------------

Do not use a calculator.

Write an expression to represent the situation. Then solve by finding the value of the expression.

1. Owen is fishing from a dock. He starts with the bait 2 feet below the surface of the water. He reels out the bait 19 feet, then reels it back in 7 feet. What is the final position of the bait relative to the surface of the water?

2. Rita earned 45 points on a test. She lost 8 points, earned 53 points, then lost 6 more points. What is Rita’s final score on the test?

Compare the expressions. Write , or =.

5. Anna and Maya are competing in a dance tournament where dance moves are worth a certain number of points. If a dance move is done correctly, the dancer earns points. If a dance move is done incorrectly, the dancer loses points. Anna currently has 225 points.

a. Before her dance routine ends, Anna earns 75 points and loses 30 points. Write and solve an expression to find Anna’s final score.

b. Maya’s final score is 298. Which dancer has the greater final score?

6. Kirsten and Gigi are riding in hot air balloons. They start 500 feet above the ground. Kirsten’s balloon rises 225 feet, falls 105 feet, and then rises 445 feet. Every time Kirsten’s balloon travels up or down, Gigi’s balloon travels 15 feet farther in the same direction. Then both balloons stop moving so a photographer on the ground can take a picture.

a. Find Kirsten’s final position relative to the ground.

b. Is Kirsten or Gigi closer to the ground when the photographer takes the picture?

7. In a ring-toss game, players get points for the number of rings they can toss and land on a colored stake. They earn 20 points for landing on a red stake and 30 points for landing on a blue stake.
