Integers on the Number Line
Learning Objectives
- Understand positive and negative integers
- Compare and order integers
- Apply to real-world contexts
Key Concepts
Integer
Whole numbers and their opposites (…, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, …)
Absolute Value
Distance from zero on the number line
Theory
**Integers** include all positive and negative whole numbers, plus zero.
**Ordering:** Numbers increase from left to right on the number line.
- -5 < -2 < 0 < 3 < 7
**Absolute Value:** |n| is always non-negative.
- |-4| = 4, |7| = 7, |0| = 0
Examples
Order: 3, -7, 0, -2, 5
Solution: -7, -2, 0, 3, 5
