1. Warm Up Lesson 1-1 Word Problems

2. Lesson Objectives Add real numbers; Subtract real numbers 2.0 Students understand and use such operations as taking the opposite, finding the reciprocal, taking a root, and raising to a fractional power. They understand and use the rules of exponents.

3. real numbers The set of all numbers that can be represented on a number line are called. The absolute value of a number is the distance from zero on a number line. The absolute value of 5 is written as |5|. Opposites numbers which are the same distance from zero on the number line, but on opposite sides Additive inverse the opposite of a number, used when subtracting numbers.

9. -3 -1 0 1 2 3 4 6 8 9 -2 7 5 Check It Out! Example 1a Add or subtract using a number line. –3 + 7 Start at 0. Move left to –3. To add 7, move right 7 units. +7 –3 –3 + 7 = 4

10. Check It Out! Example 1b Add or subtract using a number line. –3 – 7 Start at 0. Move left to –3. To subtract 7, move left 7 units. –7 –3 11 10 6 9 8 7 5 4 3 2 1 0 –3 – 7 = –10

11. Check It Out! Example 1c Add or subtract using a number line. Start at 0. Move left to –5. –5 – (–6.5) To subtract –6.5, move right 6.5 units. – (–6.5) –5 8 7 6 5 2 1 0 1 2 4 3 –5 – (–6.5) = 1.5

12. Additional Example 2: Adding Real Numbers Add. A. Different signs: subtract the absolute values. Use the sign of the number with the greater absolute value. B. –6+ (–2) (6 + 2 = 8) Same signs: add the absolute values. –8 Both numbers are negative, so the sum is negative.

13. Check It Out! Example 2 Add. a. –5 + (–7) Same signs: add the absolute values. (5 + 7 = 12) –12 Both numbers are negative, so the sum is negative. b. –13.5 + (–22.3) Same signs: add the absolute values. (13.5 + 22.3 = 35.8) Both numbers are negative, so the sum is negative. –35.8

14. Check It Out! Example 2c Add. c.52 + (–68) (68 – 52 = 16) Different signs: subtract the absolute values. Use the sign of the number with the greater absolute value. –16

15. Additional Example 3A:Subtracting Real Numbers Subtract. –6.7 – 4.1 –6.7 – 4.1 = –6.7 + (–4.1) To subtract 4.1, add –4.1. (6.7 + 4.1 = 10.8) Same signs: add absolute values. Both numbers are negative, so the sum is negative. –10.8

16. Additional Example 3B:Subtracting Real Numbers Subtract. 5 – (–4) 5 − (–4) = 5 + 4 To subtract –4, add 4. (5 + 4 = 9) Same signs: add absolute values. 9 Both numbers are positive, so the sum is positive.

17. , , add . To subtract Rewrite with a denominator of 10. Additional Example 3C:Subtracting Real Numbers Subtract. Same signs: add absolute values . Both numbers are negative, so the sum is negative. –5.3

18. Check It Out! Example 3a Subtract. 13 – 21 13 – 21 To subtract 21, add –21. = 13 + (–21) Different signs: subtract absolute values. (21 – 13 = 8) Use the sign of the number with the greater absolute value. –8

19. 1 2 –3 To subtract , add . 1 2 3 Check It Out! Example 3b Subtract. Same signs: add absolute values. Both numbers are positive, so the sum is positive. 4

20. Check It Out! Example 3c Subtract. –14– (–12) –14– (–12) = –14 + 12 To subtract –12, add 12. (14 – 12 = 2) Different signs: subtract absolute values. –2 Use the sign of the number with the greater absolute value.

21. Additional Example 4: Oceanography Application An iceberg extends 75 feet above the sea. The bottom of the iceberg is at an elevation of –247 feet. What is the height of the iceberg? Find the difference in the elevations of the top of the iceberg and the bottom of the iceberg. elevationat bottom of iceberg elevation at top of iceberg minus – –247 75 75 – (–247) 75 – (–247) = 75 + 247 To subtract –247, add 247. Same signs: add the absolute values. = 322

22. Additional Example 4 Continued An iceberg extends 75 feet above the sea. The bottom of the iceberg is at an elevation of –247 feet. What is the height of the iceberg? The height of the iceberg is 322 feet.

23. Check It Out! Example 4 What if…?The tallest known iceberg in the North Atlantic rose 550 feet above the ocean's surface. How many feet would it be from the top of the tallest iceberg to the wreckage of the Titanic, which is at an elevation of –12,468 feet? elevation at top of iceberg elevationof the Titanic minus – 550 –12,468 550 – (–12,468) To subtract –12,468, add 12,468. 550 – (–12,468) = 550 + 12,468 = 13,018 Same signs: add the absolute values.

24. Check It Out! Example 4 Continued What if…?The tallest known iceberg in the North Atlantic rose 550 feet above the ocean's surface. How many feet would it be from the top of the tallest iceberg to the wreckage of the Titanic, which is at an elevation of –12,468 feet? Distance from the top of the iceberg to the Titanic is 13,018 feet.
