5. Positive numbers are greater than 0
Positive numbers are greater than 0. They may be written with a positive sign (+), but they are usually written without it.
Negative numbers are less than 0. They are always written with a negative sign (–). 5

6. Name a positive or negative number to represent each situation.

10. You can graph positive and negative numbers on a number line.
On a number line, opposites are the same distance from 0 but on different sides of 0.
Integers are the set of all whole numbers and their opposites.
Opposites
–5 –4 –3 –2 –
Negative Integers
Positive Integers
0 is neither negative nor positive. 10

11. The set of whole numbers includes zero and the counting numbers.
{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, …}
Remember! 11

12. Additional Example 2: Graphing Integers
Graph each integer and its opposite on a number line.
A. +2
–2 is the same distance from 0 as +2.
–5 –4 –3 –2 –
B. –5
+5 is the same distance from 0 as –5.
–5 –4 –3 –2 – 12

13. Additional Example 2: Graphing Integers
Graph each integer and its opposite on a number line.
C. +1
–1 is the same distance from 0 as +1.
–5 –4 –3 –2 – 13

14. Graph each integer and its opposite on a number line.
Check It Out: Example 2
Graph each integer and its opposite on a number line.
A. +3
–3 is the same distance from 0 as +3.
–5 –4 –3 –2 –
B. –4
+4 is the same distance from 0 as –4.
–5 –4 –3 –2 – 14

15. Graph each integer and its opposite on a number line.
Check It Out: Example 2
Graph each integer and its opposite on a number line.
C. 0
Zero is its own opposite.
–5 –4 –3 –2 – 15

16. |<--3 units--> | <--3 units-->|
The absolute value of an integer is its distance from 0 on a number line. The symbol for absolute value is ||.
|–3| = |3| = 3
|<--3 units--> | <--3 units-->|
–5 –4 –3 –2 –
Absolute values are never negative.
Opposite integers have the same absolute value.
|0| = 0 16

17. Additional Example 3A: Finding Absolute Value
Use a number line to find the absolute value of each integer.
A. |–2|
–5 –4 –3 –2 –
–2 is 2 units from 0, so |–2| = 2 2 17

18. Additional Example 3B: Finding Absolute Value
Use a number line to find the absolute value of each integer.
B. |8| –
8 is 8 units from 0, so |8| = 8 8 18

19. Check It Out: Example 3A
Use a number line to find the absolute value of each integer.
A. |6| –
6 is 6 units from 0, so |6| = 6 6 19

20. Check It Out: Example 3B
Use a number line to find the absolute value of each integer.
B. |–4|
–5 –4 –3 –2 –
–4 is 4 units from 0, so |–4| = 4 4 20
