1Deﬁne the set of integers.

2Graph integers on a number line.

3Use inequality symbols to compare integers.

4Find the absolute value of an integer.

An Introduction to the Integers

We have seen that whole numbers can be used to describe many situations that arise in everyday life. However, we cannot use whole numbers to express temperatures below zero, the balance in a checking account that is overdrawn, or how far an object is below sea level. In this section, we will see how negative numbers can be used to describe these three situations as well as many others.

5 Find the opposite of an integer.

1 Deﬁne the set of integers.

To describe a temperature of 2 degrees above zero, a balance of $50, or 600 feet above sea level, we can use numbers called positive numbers. All positive numbers are greater than 0, and we can write them with or without a positive sign .

In words	In symbols	Read as
2 degrees above zero	2 or 2	positive two
A balance of $50	50 or 50	positive ﬁfty

To describe a temperature of 2 degrees below zero, $50 overdrawn, or 600 feet below sea level, we need to use negative numbers. Negative numbers are numbers less than 0, and they are written using a negative sign .

In words	In symbols	Read as
2 degrees below zero	2	negative two

Together, positive and negative numbers are called signed numbers.

Positive and Negative Numbers

Positive numbers are greater than 0. Negative numbers are less than 0.

Caution! Zero is neither positive nor negative.

The collection of positive whole numbers, the negatives of the whole numbers, and 0 is called the set of integers (read as “in-ti-jers”).

The Set of Integers

{ . . . , 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, . . . }

The three dots on the right indicate that the list continues forever—there is no largest integer. The three dots on the left indicate that the list continues forever— there is no smallest integer. The set of positive integers is {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, . . . } and the set of negative integers is { . . . , 5, 4, 3, 2, 1}.

The Language of Mathematics Since every whole number is an integer, we say that the set of whole numbers is a subset of the integers.

The set of integers

{ . . . , 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, . . . }

The set of whole numbers

2 Graph integers on a number line.

In Section 1.1, we introduced the number line. We can use an extension of the number line to learn about negative numbers.

Negative numbers can be represented on a number line by extending the line to the left and drawing an arrowhead. Beginning at the origin (the 0 point), we move to the left, marking equally spaced points as shown below.As we move to the right on the number line, the values of the numbers increase. As we move to the left, the values of the numbers decrease.

Now Try Problem 23

EXAMPLE 1 Graph 3, 2, 1, and 4 on a number line.

−4 −3 −2 −1 0 1 2 3 4

Strategy We will locate the position of each integer on the number line and draw a bold dot.

WHY To graph a number means to make a drawing that represents the number.

Solution

The position of each negative integer is to the left of 0.The position of each positive integer is to the right of 0.

By extending the number line to include negative numbers, we can represent more situations using bar graphs and line graphs. For example, the following bar graph shows the net income of the Eastman Kodak Company for the years 2000 through 2007. Since the net income in 2004 was positive $556 million, the company made a proﬁt. Since the net income in 2005 was $1,362 million, the company had a loss.

The Language of Mathematics Net refers to what remains after all the deductions (losses) have been accounted for. Net income is a term used in business that often is referred to as the bottom line. Net income indicates what a company has earned (or lost) in a given period of time (usually

1 year).

THINK IT THROUGH Credit Card Debt

“The most dangerous pitfall for many college students is the overuse of credit cards. Many banks do their best to entice new card holders with low or zero-interest cards.”

Gary Schatsky, certiﬁed ﬁnancial planner

Which numbers on the credit card statement below are actually debts and, therefore, could be represented using negative numbers?

3 Use inequality symbols to compare integers.

Recall that the symbol means “is less than” and that means “is greater than.”The ﬁgure below shows the graph of the integers 2 and 1. Since 2 is to the left of 1 on the number line, 2 1. Since 2 1, it is also true that 1 2.

−4 −3 −2 −1 0 1 2 3 4

	EXAMPLE 2	Place an or an symbol in the box to make a true
statement. a. 4			5 b. 8	7

Strategy To pick the correct inequality symbol to place between the pair of numbers, we will determine the position of each number on the number line.

WHY For any two numbers on a number line, the number to the left is the smaller number and the number on the right is the larger number.

Solution

a.Since 4 is to the right of 5 on the number line, 4 5.

b.Since 8 is to the left of 7 on the number line, 8 7.

Self Check 2

Place an or an symbol in the box to make a true statement.

a.6 6

Now Try Problems 31 and 35

136	Chapter 2 The Integers

Self Check 3

Tell whether each statement is true or false.

a.17 15

b.35 35

c.2 2

d.61 62

Now Try Problems 41 and 45

The Language of Mathematics Because the symbol requires one number to be strictly less than another number and the symbol requires one number to be strictly greater than another number, mathematical statements involving the symbols and are called strict inequalities.

There are three other commonly used inequality symbols.

Inequality Symbols

means is not equal to

means is greater than or equal to

means is less than or equal to

5 2 Read as “ 5 is not equal to 2.”

6 10 Read as “ 6 is less than or equal to 10.” This statement is true, because 6 10.

12 12 Read as “12 is less than or equal to 12.” This statement is true, because 12 12.

15 17

20 20

EXAMPLE 3

Read as “ 15 is greater than or equal to 17.” This statement is true, because 15 17.

Read as “ 20 is greater than or equal to 20.” This statement is true, because 20 20.

Tell whether each statement is true or false.

a. 9 9 b. 1 5 c. 27 6 d. 32 32

Strategy We will determine if either the strict inequality or the equality that the symbols and allow is true.

WHY If either is true, then the given statement is true.

Solution

a.9 9 This statement is true, because 9 9.

b.1 5 This statement is false, because neither 1 5 nor 1 5 is true.

c.27 6 This statement is false, because neither 27 6 nor 27 6 is true.

d. 32 31 This statement is true, because 32 31.

4 Find the absolute value of an integer.

Using a number line, we can see that the numbers 3 and 3 are both a distance of 3 units away from 0, as shown below.

			3 units				3 units



−5	−4	−3	−2	−1	0	1		2	3	4	5

The absolute value of a number gives the distance between the number and 0 on the number line. To indicate absolute value, the number is inserted between two vertical bars, called the absolute value symbol. For example, we can write 0 3 0 3. This is read as “The absolute value of negative 3 is 3,” and it tells us that the distance between 3 and 0 on the number line is 3 units. From the ﬁgure, we also see that 0 3 0 3.

2.1 An Introduction to the Integers

137

Absolute Value

The absolute value of a number is the distance on the number line between the number and 0.

Caution! Absolute value expresses distance. The absolute value of a number is always positive or 0. It is never negative.

EXAMPLE 4	Find each absolute value: a. 0 8	0 b. 0 5	0 c. 0 0 0

Strategy We need to determine the distance that the number within the vertical absolute value bars is from 0 on a number line.

WHY The absolute value of a number is the distance between 0 and the number on a number line.

Self Check 4

Find each absolute value:

a.0 9 0

b.0 4 0

Now Try Problems 47 and 49

Solution

a. On the number line, the distance between 8 and 0 is 8. Therefore,

0 8 0 8

b. On the number line, the distance between 5 and 0 is 5. Therefore,

0 5 0 5

c. On the number line, the distance between 0 and 0 is 0. Therefore,

0 0 0 0

5 Find the opposite of an integer.

Opposites or Negatives

Two numbers that are the same distance from 0 on the number line, but on opposite sides of it, are called opposites or negatives.

The ﬁgure below shows that for each whole number on the number line, there is a corresponding whole number, called its opposite, to the left of 0. For example, we see that 3 and 3 are opposites, as are 5 and 5. Note that 0 is its own opposite.

–5	–4	–3	–2	–1	0	1	2	3	4	5

Opposites

To write the opposite of a number, a symbol is used. For example, the opposite of 5 is 5 (read as “negative 5”). Parentheses are needed to express the opposite of a negative number.The opposite of 5 is written as ( 5). Since 5 and 5 are the same distance from 0, the opposite of 5 is 5. Therefore, ( 5) 5. This illustrates the following rule.

The Opposite of the Opposite Rule

The opposite of the opposite (or negative) of a number is that number.

138	Chapter 2 The Integers

Self Check 5

Simplify each expression:

a.( 1)

b.0 4 0

c.0 99 0

Now Try Problems 55, 65, and 67

Number	Opposite
57	57	Read as “negative ﬁfty-seven.”
8	( 8) 8	Read as “the opposite of negative eight is eight.”
0	0 0	Read as “the opposite of 0 is 0.”

The concept of opposite can also be applied to an absolute value. For example, the opposite of the absolute value of 8 can be written as 0 8 0 . Think of this as a twostep process, where the absolute value symbol serves as a grouping symbol. Find the absolute value ﬁrst, and then attach a sign to that result.

First, ﬁnd the absolute value.


0 8 0	8 Read as “the opposite of the absolute value
		of negative eight is negative eight.”

Then attach a sign.

EXAMPLE 5	Simplify each expression: a. ( 44) b. 0 11	0 c. 0 225 0

Strategy We will ﬁnd the opposite of each number.

WHY In each case, the symbol written outside the grouping symbols means “the opposite of.”

Solution

a.( 44) means the opposite of 44. Since the opposite of 44 is 44, we write

( 44) 44

b.0 11 0 means the opposite of the absolute value of 11. Since 0 11 0 11, and the opposite of 11 is 11, we write

0 11 0 11

c.0 225 0 means the opposite of the absolute value of 225. Since 0 225 0 225, and the opposite of 225 is 225, we write

0 225 0 225

The symbol is used to indicate a negative number, the opposite of a number, and the operation of subtraction. The key to reading the symbol correctly is to examine the context in which it is used.

Reading the Symbol

12	Negative twelve	A symbol directly in front of a number
		is read as “negative.”
		is read as “negative.”
	The opposite of	The ﬁrst symbol is read as “the opposite
( 12)	The opposite of	The ﬁrst symbol is read as “the opposite
	negative twelve	of” and the second as “negative.”
	negative twelve	of” and the second as “negative.”

12 5	Twelve minus ﬁve	Notice the space used before and after the
		symbol. This indicates subtraction and
