1 Investigation 1.2 From Sauna to Snowbank

2 Learning Targets I can understand the relationship between positive and negative numbers and their opposites (additive inverse). I can interpret and represent positive and negative numbers on a number line and in context. I can compare and order positive and negative numbers.

3 Different Temperatures
What are the hottest and coldest temperatures that you have ever experienced? How do we show that temperatures are below zero? We use a negative sign to show that a temperature is below zero.

4 Different Temperatures Worldwide

5 Horizontal Number Line
On a horizontal number line, where are the positive numbers in relation to 0? On a horizontal number line, where are the negative numbers in relation to 0? Negative numbers Positive numbers

6 Vertical Number Line Positive numbers We can think of a thermometer as a vertical number line. On a thermometer, where are the positive numbers located in relation to 0? On a thermometer, where are the negative numbers located in relation to 0? Negative numbers

7 Location of Integers on a Vertical Number Line
Suppose the temperature is +5 ℉. Where is +5 ℉ located on this vertical number line in relation to 0 ℉? +5 ℉ is located 5 units above the 0 ℉ mark. Suppose the temperature is -5 ℉. Where is -5 ℉ located on this vertical number line in relation to 0 ℉? -5 ℉ is located 5 units below the 0 ℉ mark. +5 ℉ -5 ℉

8 Opposites Where is the opposite of 12 on a vertical number line?
-12 Where is the opposite of -9 on a vertical number line? 9 9 -12

9 Sauna to Snowbank The record high and low temperatures in the United States are 134 ℉ in Death Valley, California and -80 ℉ in Prospect, Alaska. Imagine going from 134 ℉ to -80 ℉ in an instant!

10 Sauna to Snowbank In Finland, people think that such temperature shocks are fun and good for your health. This activity is called sauna-bathing.

11 Sauna to Snowbank In the winter, Finnish people sit for a certain amount of time in sauna houses. The houses are heated as high as 120 ℉. Then the people run outside, where the temperatures might be as low as -20 ℉.

12 Problem 1.2 – Comparing and Ordering Positive and Negative Number
Order these temperatures from least to greatest. 0 ℉, 115 ℉, -15 ℉, ℉, -40 ℉, ℉, ℉ For each pair of temperatures, identify which temperature is further from -2 ℉. Use a number line if you need to. -40 ℉, ℉, -15 ℉, 0 ℉ , ℉ , 115 ℉ 1. 6℉ or -6℉ 2. -7℉ or 3℉ 3. 2℉ or -5℉ 4. -10℉ or 7℉

13 Shown Work for Question B
4 8 -6 -2 6 5 5 -7 -2 3 3 4 8 -5 -2 9 2 -10 -2 7
