Chapter 1 Section 2 Operations with Read Numbers and Simplifying Algebraic Expressions
Absolute Value |a| Distance from 0 to a on the number line. Positive value Evaluate 1) | -4 | 2) | 3.5| 3) - | -2 |
Addition (+) + (+) = (+) ( - ) + ( - ) = ( - ) (+) + ( - ) = sign of larger value subtract to get the number
Addition Examples 4 + 2 = 6 - 4 + (-3) = - 7 - 4 + 5 = 1 - 4 + 3 = -1
Try 1) -12 + (-14) 2) 2 + (- 9) 3) - 9 + 3 4) 4 + 6
Subtract Use the definition of subtraction Add the opposite of the second number Meaning, change the subtraction sign to addition and take the opposite of the second number
Subtraction 7 10 Change the sign to addition and take the opposite of 10 so 7 + (- 10) -7 10 Same as above: - 7 + (- 10)
Example - 7 (- 10) Change the subtraction sign to addition and take the opposite of 10 - 7 + 10
Work the following 4a) -12 + (-14) 5) 5 + (-2) 6) 6 13 7) 5.1 (-4.2)
Multiplication, Division ( + ) ( + ) = ( + ) ( - ) ( - ) = ( + ) ( + ) ( - ) = ( - ) + +=+ - -=+ - +=- + -=-
Multiplication, Division Like signs, answer is positive Unlike signs, answer is negative + + -
