An number added to its opposite is equal to zero. Any number added to zero is equal to that number.

Examples:

6 +(-6)= 0

-9+9=0

10+(-10)=0

3+0=3

0+7=7

9+0=0

Examples:

• +18 and +12

• +18 is farther to the right, so +18 > +12

• -11 and 0

• 0 is father to the right, so 0> -11

• -6 and -7

• -6 is farther to the right, so -6 >-7

Multiple Choice

On a number line, the larger of two numbers is the one that is to the right of the other number. Since the positive numbers are to the right of the negative numbers, we can say that any positive number is greater than any negative number.

each number below is listed with its opposite

+17, -17

-9, +9

-35, +35

+73, -73

any number added to its opposite is equal to zero. Any number added to zero is equal to that number

examples

• 6=(-6)=0

• -9+9=0

• 10+(-10)=0

• 3+0=3

• 0+7=7

• 9+0=9

• Find the sume of the following integers.

On a number line the larger of two numbers is the one that is to the right of the other number. Since the positive numnbers are to the right of the negative numbers, we can say that any positive number is greater than any negative number .

USE A NUMBER LINE

+18 and +12

+18 is farther to the right, so +18> +12

-11 and 0

O is farther to the right, so 0>-11

-6 and -7

-6 is farther to the right, so -6>-7
