Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let's go through the problems step by step.
Fill in the Blanks:
- The additive identity for integers is 0.
- The multiplicative identity for integers is 1.
- The product of any integer and 0 is 0.
- The quotient of any non-zero integer divided by itself is 1.
- The product of a negative integer and a positive integer is always negative.
True or False:
- The sum of two negative integers is always positive. False (it’s always negative).
- The difference of two positive integers can be negative. True (if the first integer is smaller than the second).
- The product of three negative integers is negative. False (it is positive because an odd number of negatives multiplied gives a negative result).
- The quotient of a negative integer divided by a positive integer is always negative. True.
- The absolute value of a positive integer is always negative. False (the absolute value is always non-negative).
Solve the Following:
-
Find the sum of -12 and 8.
-12 + 8 = -4 -
Subtract -5 from 13.
13 - (-5) = 13 + 5 = 18 -
Multiply -4 by -7.
-4 × -7 = 28 -
Divide 24 by -3.
24 ÷ -3 = -8 -
Evaluate (-3) × (-2) + 5.
(-3) × (-2) = 6
6 + 5 = 11
Word Problems:
-
The temperature in the morning was -5°C. In the afternoon, it rose by 8°C. What was the temperature in the afternoon?
-5°C + 8°C = 3°C -
A submarine was at a depth of -150 meters. It rose 75 meters. What is its new depth?
-150 + 75 = -75 meters -
A football team lost 5 yards on the first play, gained 8 yards on the second play, and lost 3 yards on the third play. What was their total yardage?
-5 + 8 - 3 = 0 yards
