Math 1200 Real Numbers

Sec. 10.1 Introduction to Real Numbers

The set of real numbers consists of whole numbers, integers,
rational numbers and irrational numbers.

Integer – a positive or negative whole number, or zero
Rational Number – any number that can be written as a
fraction (whole numbers, fractions, decimals that end or
repeat)

Irrational Numbers – numbers whose decimal
representations do not end or repeat (ex: π, )

Comparing Real Numbers

Compare the integers using a < or > symbol:

Absolute value: a number’s distance from zero on the
number line.

Evaluate:

9. | 5 |
10. | -6 |
11. | -(-8) |
12. | -(7) |

Sec. 10.2 Adding Integers
“Think money”
15 + 9 = 24 “I have 15 and I earn 9 more. Now I have 24”
16 + (-10) = 6 “I have 16 and I spend 10. I still have 6”
(-7) + 2 = -5 “I owe 7 and then I earn 2. I owe only 5.”
(-14) + (-28) = -42 “Two debts add up to more debt!”

Add:

1. (-5) + 1	2. (-2) + (-5)
3. (-18) + 21	4. 19 + (-6)
5. (-4) + 4	6. -17 + 4
7. (-32) + 7	8. -41 + (-17)
9. 43 + (-51)	10. 27 + (-34)
11. 10 + (-12) + 42 + (-34)	13.

14. 14.123 + (-12.98)

Opposites: 2 numbers that are the same distance from zero
on the number line.

State the opposite of the number given:

15. 14
16. -45

Evaluate:

17. - (86)
18. - (-13)

Find –x when …

19. x = -16
20. x = 78

Find -(-x) when …

21. x = 9
22. x = -13

Sec. 10.3 Subtracting Real Numbers

“Add the opposite”

Subtract:

1. 41 – (-23)	2. -11 – (-8)
3. 4 – (-6)	4. -23 – (-7)
5. 15 – (-6)	6. 27 – 34
7. -57 – 31	8. -20 – (-30)
9. -25 – (-15)	10. 50 – (-25)
11. -10 – (-7) – 15	12. 35 – 24 – (-16)
13.	14.

15. What is the difference between a summertime high
temperature of 105°F and a wintertime low of -25°F?

Sec. 10.4 Multiplying Real Numbers

Ways to indicate multiplication:
14 x (-3)
14 ·(-3)
14(-3)

Rules:
Multiplication is performed on two numbers at a time.
Multiplying 2 numbers with the same sign gives a
positive answer. 3· 5 = 15 (-4) ·(-7) = 28
Multiplying 2 numbers with different signs gives a
negative answer. -3· 5 = -15

Try these:

1. 4 ·(-5) =	2. (-7)·(-3) =
3. 4· (-3) ·(-2)	4. 4 ·(-3) ·(-2)· (-1) =
5.

Sec. 10.5 Dividing Real Numbers & Order of Operations

Ways to indicate division:

Rules:

Division is performed on two numbers at a time.
Dividing 2 numbers with the same sign gives a
positive answer. -15 ÷ (-3) = 5
Dividing 2 numbers with different signs gives a
negative answer. -28÷ 7 = -4

1. 150 (-3) =
2. -75 (-3) =
3.

Order of Operations:

1. Inside parentheses
2. Exponents
3. Multiplication/Division
4. Addition/Subtraction

Simplify:

1.2 – (8 – 10) 2
2. 4 – (-5)· (-2)²
3. 3· 2² + 5 ·(3 + 2) – 17
4. 16 - 4· 8 + 4² – (-18) (-9)
5. 5 + 7· (3 – 8)² (-14 + 9)
6. (6.2 – 1.3)· (-3)
7.

You try these:

8. 7(-6) + (-3)³	9. -5(3 – 1)²
10. -2(-3)³ – 8(-1)⁹	11. [ 5 – (-2)]·(3 – 7)
12. -18 (-3) + 5(-7)	13. [(-7) ·3 + (-6)] (-9)
14. (-5 – 3)² [ -13 – (-5)]	15. [-9 – (-1)] (5 – 7)⁴
