The number line for adding integers The number line is a line labeled with the integers in increasing order from left to right, that extends in both directions: For any two different places on the number line, the integer on the right is greater than the integer on the left. Examples: 9 > 4, 6 > -9, -2 > -8, and 0 > -5
9
In the following examples, we convert the subtracted integer to its opposite, and add the two integers. 7 - 4 = 7 + (-4) = 3 12 - (-5) = 12 + (5) = 17 -8 - 7 = -8 + (-7) = -15 -22 - (-40) = -22 + (40) = 18
10
Examples of adding Integers 2 + 5 = 7 (-7) + (-2) = -(7 + 2) = -9 (-80) + (-34) = -(80 + 34) = -114
