Presentation Transcript

  1. How do you find the distance between two integers like 6 and -3?

  2. In this lesson you will learn to determine the distance between integers by examining absolute value and number lines.

  3. What’s an integer? Integers include positive and negative whole numbers as well as 0. ...-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3 ... Non-Examples: -5.2 0.28 -9.9 4

  4. What’s distance? Distance is a measure of how far apart two things are. Distance is always positive.

  5. What’s absolute value? Absolute value is a number’s distance from 0. -12 7 | | | | -12 = 12 7 = 7

  6. Using distance and subtraction as synonyms. 6 9 - 6 - 9 = 3 not Distance between -5 and 4 is -9. v -5 4

  7. Find the distance between 5 and 14. 9 9 5 14 5 14 Find the distance between -2 and -11. 9 -11 -2

  8. Find the distance between 6 and -3. 9 -3 6 the distance between 5 and 14 the distance between -2 and 11 9 9 9 9 -11 -11 -2 -2 5 5 14 14

  9. Distance = Difference 12 = 14 - 2 12 = 2 - 14

  10. In this lesson you learned to determine the distance between integers by examining absolute value and number lines.

  11. Determine the distance between -8 and 3. 11 3 -8

  12. How many units apart are -4 and -10? 6 -4 -10

  13. Think about traveling to a friend’s house and back home. Would you use positive or negative numbers to describe the trip? • Write about why you think distance is always positive?

  14. What do you notice is different about the pairs of numbers in Group A and the pairs of numbers in Group B?Is there anything different about how you find the distance between numbers in each group? Explain why or why not.

  15. How many units apart are 18 and -13? Determine the distance between -20 and -4.
