1. Agenda 10/13/11 1. Correct/Discuss Ratio Proportion Quiz If you are still having trouble, visit www.khanacademy.org 2. Introduction to Algebra (Integers) 3. Adding and Subtracting Integers
2. Working with Signed Numbers The Number Line Algebra uses NEGATIVE and POSITIVE numbers. Algebra also uses variables, or letters to represent the unknown values. 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.
6. A number on the number line is greater than any number to its left.
7.
8. Absolute Value 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 .

10. Know the Rules: Same Sign Adding Two SAME-Signed Numbers: Add and give the total of the signed numbers. (-5) + (-5) = -10
11. 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
12. Know the Rules: Subtracting Change the sign of the number being subtracted and drop the subtraction sign. -11 (-8) - (3)= Different Signs -5 (-8) - (-3)= Same Signs
13. 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.
15. Subtracting Signed Numbers This is where it gets weird. To subtract signed numbers: Step 1: Change the sign of the number being subtracted. Step 2: Follow the signs for adding signed numbers. -11
16. Subtracting Signed Numbers This is where it gets weird. To subtract signed numbers: Step 1: Change the sign of the number being subtracted. Step 2: Follow the signs for adding signed numbers. -8
17. 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
21. Step 2: If same signs, make the product positive.
22. Step 3: If different signs, make the product negative.(-2)(+5) = -10
23.
24. Step 2: If same signs, make the product positive.
25. Step 3: If different signs, make the product negative.(-2)(-5) = +10
26. Multiplying 3 or more signed numbers Example 4: 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
27. Rule Step 1: Multiply. Step 2: If same signs, make the product positive. Step 3: If different signs, make the product negative.
29. Dividing Signed Numbers Rule: Step 1: Divide or reduce. Step 2: If like signs, quotient will be positive. Step 3: If different signs, quotient will be negative. + 30/-6
31. Mixed Signed Numbers Problems Order of Operations Always go from LEFT to RIGHT. PEMDAS (Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally) Parentheses Exponents (powers and roots) Multiplication and Division Addition and Subtraction
