Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 9.1 Signed Numbers Objectives 1. Write negative numbers. 2. Graph signed numbers on a number line. 3. Use the < and > symbols. 4. Find absolute value. 5. Find the opposite of a number. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Slide 9.1- 2

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. All the numbers you have studied so far in this book have been either 0 or greater than 0. Numbers greater than 0 are called positive numbers. For example: Salary of $55,000 Temperature of 98.6 Length of 5 feet Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Parallel Example 1 Graphing Signed Numbers Graph these numbers on the number line. 5 b. 3 c. –2 d. 0 e. Place a dot at the correct location for each number. c d e b a Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. When you look at the number line below, 3 is to the left of 5. Recall the following symbols for comparing two numbers. < means “is less than.” > means “is greater than.” Use these symbols to write “3 is less than 5” 3 < 5 3 is less than 5 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Parallel Example 2 Using the Symbols < and > Use the number line to compare each pair of numbers. Then write > or < to make each statement true. a. Compare 3 and 5. 3 5 3 is to the left of 5 on the number line Compare –4 and –2 –4 –2 –4 is to the left of –2 < < Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. In order to graph a number on the number line, you need to answer two questions: Which direction is it from 0? It can be a positive direction or a negative direction. You can tell the direction by looking for a positive or negative sign (or no sign, which is positive). How far is it from 0? The distance from 0 is the absolute value of a number. Absolute value is indicated by two vertical bars. |7| is read “the absolute value of 7.” Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Parallel Example 3 Finding Absolute Values Simplify each absolute value expression. |5| |5| = 5 b. |–3| |–3| = 3 Distance is 5. Direction is positive. Distance is 3. Direction is negative. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Parallel Example 3 Finding Absolute Values Simplify each absolute value expression. c. –|–4| First |–4| = 4 But there is also a negative sign outside the absolute value bars. So, –4 is the simplified expression. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Two numbers that are the same distance from 0 on a number line but on opposite sides of 0 are called opposites of each other. To indicate the opposite of a number, write a negative sign in front of the number. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Parallel Example 4 Finding Opposites Find the opposite of each number. Number Opposite 6 12 (6) = 6 (12) = 12 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Parallel Example 5 Finding Opposites Find the opposite of each number. Number Opposite 4 11 (4) = 4 (11) = 11 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.

9.5 Evaluating Expressions and Formulas Objectives 1. Define variable and expression. 2. Find the value of an expression when values of the variables are given. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Slide 9.5- 46

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. In algebra, we often write multiplication without the multiplication dots. If there is no operation sign written between two letters, or between a letter and a number, you assume it is multiplication. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Slide 9.5- 47

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Letters (such as the l, p, r and t used on the previous slide) that represent numbers are called variables. A combination of operations on letters and numbers is an expression. Examples: 9 + p 9r 2w – 3a The value of an expression changes depending on the value of each variable. To find the value of an expression, replace the variables with their values. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Slide 9.5- 48

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Parallel Example 1 Finding the Value of an Expression Find the value of 6x – 2y, if x = 2 and y = 5. Replace x with 2. Replace y with 5. Using the order of operations, do all multiplications first. Then subtract. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Slide 9.5- 49

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Parallel Example 2 Finding the Value of an Expression What is the value of if w = –2, a = 3 and t = –1? Replace w with 2, a with 3 and t with 1. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Slide 9.5- 50

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Parallel Example 3 Evaluating an Expression with Negative Signs and Negative Values Find the value of x – 2y, if x = 2 and y = 5. Replace x with 2. Replace y with 5. (2) is the opposite of 2 which is (+2). Multiply 2  5. Change subtraction to addition; change (15) to its opposite, (+15). Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Slide 9.5- 51

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Parallel Example 4 Evaluating a Formula The formula used in a previous chapter for the area of a triangle can now be written without the multiplication dots. In this formula, b is the length of the base of the triangle and h is the height of the triangle. What is the area if b = 10 cm and h = 32 cm? Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Slide 9.5- 52

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Parallel Example 4 Evaluating a Formula What is the area if b = 10 cm and h = 32 cm? The area of the triangle is 160 cm2. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. Slide 9.5- 53

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. 9.6 Solving Equations Objectives 1. Determine whether a number is a solution of an equation. 2. Solve equations using the addition property of equations. 3. Solve equations using the multiplication property of equations. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.
