Math Problem Statement
Solution
This worksheet is about integer addition and subtraction, and I can assist you with solving these problems. Let's break it down section by section:
Section 1: Integer Addition/Subtraction
This section asks you to calculate the results of several integer operations. Let's go through them one by one:
-
- This is the addition of two negative numbers: .
-
- Here you are adding a positive number to a negative number: .
-
- Here you are adding a negative number to a positive number: .
-
- Adding a negative and its positive counterpart will give you zero: .
Section 2: Number Line Problem
The question asks: "If point A is at -78 and moves 25 units to the right, which point B does it reach?"
To solve:
- Moving 25 units to the right from -78 means you're adding 25:
- Therefore, the answer is . (Option D).
Section 3: Repeated Subtraction of 5
This exercise asks you to subtract 5 repeatedly starting from 13, filling in the blanks:
- Starting from 13:
- Then:
- Then:
- Finally:
Thus, the sequence is .
