3.  Arizona Mathematics Standard Articulated by 7 th Grade Level  Strand 1: Number and Operations It includes an awareness of the different types of numbers such as, whole numbers, integers, fractions, and decimals and the relationships  Concept 2: Numerical Operations  Understand and apply numerical operations and their relationship to one another.

4.  Students are expected to: Add, Subtract, Multiple, and Divide Integers.  Recognize and convert between expressions for positive and negative rational numbers, including fractions, decimals, percents, and ratios.

5.  Additive Inverse: The opposite of a number.  Example: The additive inverse of 4 is -4.  So what is the additive inverse of -4 ? Is it -10? Is it 4 ? Is it 100?

6. –6 –5 –4 –3 –2 –1 0 1 2 3 4 5 Step 2: + 2 means move across 2 places to the Right To add a positive number move to the right. To add a negative number move to the left. Think about this hint: (-6) + 2 Step 1: Find (-6) on the number line. 1 +2 2 So (-6) + 2 = -4

7.  (-3) + (- 6) To add a positive number move to the right. To add a negative number move to the left. Step 1: Find (-3) on the number line. Step 2: (- 6) means move across 6 places to the LEFT –9 –8 –7 –6 –5 –4 –3 –2 –1 0 1 2 2 -6 1 So (-3) – 6 = -9

8. A.(-2) + (-4)= ______ B.3 + (-6)=______ C.(-4) + 2 =_____ –6 –5 –4 –3 –2 –1 0 1 2 3 4 5 Move left or Right? Right Left -6 -3 -2
