OBJECTIVES FOR 2.1
1. Define the set of integers.
The collection of positive whole numbers, the negatives of the whole numbers, and 0 is called the set of integers.
0 1 2 3 4 5-1-2-3-4-5 6 7 8 9 10-6-7-8-9-10
Working with Signed Numbers
Algebra uses NEGATIVE and POSITIVE numbers.
Algebra also uses variables, or letters to represent the unknown values.
The Number Line
0 1 2 3 4 5-1-2-3-4-5
The numbers in red are the numbers we have worked with so far.
Algebra uses all of the numbers on the number line, both positive and negative.
OBJECTIVES FOR 2.1
2. Graph integers on the number line.
To graph a number means to make a drawing that represents the number.
0 1 2 3 4 5-1-2-3-4-5 6 7 8 9 10-6-7-8-9-10
Graph -4, -2, 0, and 3 on a number line.
Using the Number Line
0 1 2 3 4 5-1-2-3-4-5 6 7 8 9 10-6-7-8-9-10
• The arrows at both ends of the number line mean that the positive and negative numbers go on forever.
•Positive numbers are to the right of zero.
•Negative numbers are to the left of zero.
•A number on the number line is greater than any number to its left.
•A number on the number line is less than any number to its right.
ZERO is neither positive nor negative.
Using the Number Line
Positive numbers do not have to be written with a plus sign. Positive 8 is simply written as 8.
Negative numbers MUST be written with a negative sign in front of them (-8)

Absolute Value is the distance from a number to zero on the number line.
Absolute Value is neither positive or negative.
The absolute value of -5 is 5 .
What is the absolute value of -7?
OBJECTIVES FOR 2.1
4. Find the absolute value of an integer.

Homework Time!
Assignment 1 is due tomorrow and it would be a great use of you time to “get ‘er done”. If you’ve already finished, try working ahead on assignment #2.
Know the Rules: Same Sign
Adding Two SAME-Signed Numbers:
Add and give the total of the signed numbers.
(-5) + (-5) = -10
5 + 5 = 10
(-3) + (-2) = -5
Know the Rules: Different Signs
Adding when the signs are different:
Subtract and keep the sign of the bigger number.
8 + (-15)
Subtract :
15-8 =7
The sign of the larger number is negative So, the answer is -7
Adding a Series of Signed Numbers
Simplify (-9) + (10) + (-8) + (4) =
Step 1: Add the positive numbers.
Step 2: Add the negative numbers.
Step 3: Add sums together.
THIS IS WHERE IT GETS WEIRD.
If you get confused, try not to get wrapped up in the WHY of all the rules.
Sometimes some rules don’t make sense, but we accept that we must follow them anyway.
You’ve been warned!
Know the Rules: Subtracting
Change the minus to plus and change the sign of the number on the right ONLY.
(-8) - (3)= -11Different Signs
Same Signs (-8) - (-3)= -5ADD THE
OPPOSITE!!

Subtracting Signed Numbers
To subtract signed numbers:
Step 1: Change the sign of the number being subtracted.
Step 2: Follow the signs for adding signed numbers.
-8
Subtracting in a Series of Signed Numbers
This is where it gets weird.
Step 1: To solve a series of signed numbers, start by changing the signs of numbers being subtracted.
Step 2: Find the sum of the positive numbers.
Step 3: Find the sum of the negative numbers.
Step 4: Find the difference. Follow the rules of addition.
6 + 4 = 10
-2+ (-5) = -7
10- 7 = 3

-1 + 3 = ?
1. -42. -23. 24. 4
Answer Now
-6 + (-3) = ?
1. -92. -33. 34. 9
Answer Now
Which is equivalent to-12 – (-3)?
1. 12 + 32. -12 + 33. -12 - 34. 12 - 3
Answer Now
7 – (-2) = ?
1. -92. -53. 54. 9
Answer Now
Here is One Way to Remember
A negative times a negative is a positive.
A negative times a positive is a negative.
Multiplying Signed Numbers
If you gain 2 pounds a week for 5 weeks, you will weigh 10 pounds more than you weigh now.
If you lose 2 pounds a week for 5 weeks, you will weigh 10 pounds less than you weigh now.
(+2)(+5) = +10
(-2)(+5) = -10
Step 1: Multiply.
Step 2: If same signs, make the product positive.
Step 3: If different signs, make the product negative.
If you have been gaining 2 pounds a week for 5 weeks, you weighed 10 pounds less five weeks ago.
If you have been losing 2 pounds a week for 5 weeks, you weighed 10 pounds more 5 weeks ago.
Multiplying Signed Numbers
(+2)(-5) = -10
(-2)(-5) = +10
Step 1: Multiply.
Step 2: If same signs, make the product positive.
Step 3: If different signs, make the product negative.
Multiplying 3 or more signed numbers
What is (-6)(+2)(-4)?
Rule: Step 1: Multiply.
Step 2: If there are even negative signs, the final product is POSITIVE.
Step 2: If there are an odd number of negative signs, the final product is NEGATIVE.
48
Rule
Step 1: Multiply.
Step 2: If same signs, make the product positive.
Step 3: If different signs, make the product negative.
Dividing Signed Numbers (Integers)
The rule for dividing is similar to the rules for multiplying.
Same signs = positive
Different signs = negative
