7.CE.1 INTEGER WORDS

Front

What is an integer?

Back

An integer is a whole number that can be positive, negative, or zero. Examples include -3, 0, and 5.

Front

What does the term 'absolute value' mean?

Back

The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero on the number line, regardless of direction. For example, the absolute value of -4 is 4.

Front

How do you add two integers with the same sign?

Back

When adding two integers with the same sign, add their absolute values and keep the sign. For example, -3 + -5 = -8.

Front

How do you add two integers with different signs?

Back

When adding two integers with different signs, subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value and take the sign of the integer with the larger absolute value. For example, -3 + 5 = 2.

Front

What is the result of subtracting an integer from another integer?

Back

Subtracting an integer is the same as adding its opposite. For example, 5 - (-3) = 5 + 3 = 8.

Front

What is the product of two integers?

Back

The product of two integers is the result of multiplying them. If both integers have the same sign, the product is positive; if they have different signs, the product is negative. For example, -2 * 3 = -6.

Front

What is the quotient of two integers?

Back

The quotient of two integers is the result of dividing one integer by another. If the signs of the integers are the same, the quotient is positive; if the signs are different, the quotient is negative. For example, 6 ÷ -2 = -3.

Front

What is a number line?

Back

A number line is a straight line that represents numbers in order, with equal spacing between them. It typically includes positive numbers, negative numbers, and zero.

Front

What does 'opposite integers' mean?

Back

Opposite integers are pairs of integers that are the same distance from zero on the number line but in opposite directions. For example, -4 and 4 are opposite integers.

Front

How do you compare two integers?

Back

To compare two integers, determine their positions on the number line. The integer further to the right is greater. For example, -2 is greater than -5.
