Front

How do you determine the sign of the product of two integers?

Back

If both integers have the same sign (both positive or both negative), the product is positive. If they have different signs, the product is negative.

Front

What is the absolute value of an integer?

Back

The absolute value of an integer is its distance from zero on the number line, regardless of direction. For example, |-12| = 12.

Front

How do you add integers with different signs?

Back

To add integers with different signs, subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value and take the sign of the integer with the larger absolute value.

Front

What is the result of multiplying any integer by zero?

Back

The result is always zero. For example, 5 x 0 = 0.
