1. Integers & Absolute Value

2. Integers & Absolute Value
What is absolute value?
The distance of a number from zero (how far away)
What does absolute value look like?
the absolute
value of 7 | 7 | = 7
value of – 7 | – 7 | = 7

3. Integers & Absolute Value
The absolute value of 7 and -7 are BOTH 7 because each point is 7 units away from zero.
7 units units

4. Integers & Absolute Value
Evaluate the expression.
Example 1: | 3 |
Example 2: | - 68 |
Example 3: | 6 |
Example 4: - | - 9 |

5. Absolute Value Ask yourself, how far is the number from zero?
Evaluate the absolute value:
Ask yourself, how far is the number from zero?
| 12 | =
| -15 | =
| | =
| 8 -6│=

6. Order Integers from Least to Greatest
You need to know which numbers are bigger or smaller than others, so we need to order them from least to greatest.
Example:
Order the integers -4, 0, 5, -2, 3, -3 from least to greatest.
The order is -4, -3, -2, 0, 3, 5.

7. Integers & Absolute Value
Ordering Integers
Order each set of integers from least to greatest.
Example 1: - 162, - 10, - 81, 59
Example 2: 9, - 8, 4, - 9
Example 3: 2, 6, - 2, 0
Example 4: 7, 5, - 1, - 5

8. Integers & Absolute Value
Comparing Integers
Replace the □ with <, >, or = to make the sentence true.
Example 1: - 9 □ 8
Example 2: 83 □ 84
Example 3: 5 □ - 5
Example 4: - 6 □ - 4
Example 5: - 7 □ - 7

9. Integers & Absolute Value
Extension
Evaluate 6 + | n | if n = - 16.
