Evaluating Algebraic Expressions 1-5Subtracting Integers M7N1: Add, subtract, multiply, and divide rational numbers (integers, fractions, and terminating decimals) and take positive rational numbers to whole-number powers. Understand the meaning of the absolute value of a number; interpret the absolute value as the distance of the number from zero on a number line; and determine the absolute value of real numbers.

Evaluating Algebraic Expressions 1-5Subtracting Integers When you subtract a positive integer, the difference is less than the original number. Therefore, you move to the left on the number line. To subtract a negative integer, you move to the right. You can also subtract an integer by adding its opposite. We also refer to this as “keep, change, change.” You can then use the rules for addition of integers.

Evaluating Algebraic Expressions 1-5Subtracting Integers Additional Example 1: Subtracting Integers A. –7 – 4 –7 – 4 = –7 + (–4) B. 8 – (–5) 8 – (–5) = C. –6 – (–3) –6 – (–3) = –6 + 3 = –11 = 13 = –3 Add the opposite of 4. (Keep, change, change) Keep, change, change. Same sign; use the sign of the integers. 6 > 3; use the sign of 6. Subtract.

Evaluating Algebraic Expressions 1-5Subtracting Integers Check It Out! Example 1 A. 3 – (–6) 3 – (–6) = B. –4 – 1 –4 – 1 = –4 + (–1) C. –7 – (–8) –7 – (–8) = –7 + 8 = 9 = –5 = 1 Keep, change, change. Same signs; use the sign of the integers. Same sign; use the sign of the integers. 8 > 7; use the sign of 8. Subtract.

Evaluating Algebraic Expressions 1-5Subtracting Integers –9 – y if y = –4 –9 + 4 –5 Evaluate the expression for the given value of the variable. –9 – y –9 – (–4)Substitute –4 for y. Keep, change, change. 9 > 4; use the sign of 9. Additional Example 2A: Evaluating Expressions with Integers
