Comparing and Ordering Integers

This video tutorial covers lesson 1.2 on comparing and ordering integers. It begins with an introduction to the lesson objectives, focusing on understanding positive and negative numbers on a number line. The tutorial includes an activity involving win-loss records to illustrate how to determine the best and worst records using a number line. It further explains how to interpret data on a number line and order integers from least to greatest and vice versa. The video concludes with instructions on writing and interpreting inequalities using number lines.

What is the main focus of the lesson on comparing and ordering integers?

• Exploring the history of integers

• Understanding the position of numbers on a number line

• Memorizing integer multiplication tables

• Learning to add and subtract integers

How do numbers change in value as you move up a number line?

• They decrease in value

• They remain the same

• They increase in value

• They become negative

On a number line, which is greater: -3 or -5?

• They are equal

• -3 is greater than -5

• Cannot be determined

• -5 is greater than -3

Which team has the best win-loss record based on the number line analysis?

• Tigers

• Wolves

• Jaguars

• Sharks

Why do the Tigers have the worst record?

• Their score is zero

• Their score is furthest to the left on the number line

• They have the least losses

• They have the most wins

What does a score of zero indicate for the Sharks?

• They won and lost the same number of games

• They won more games than they lost

• They did not play any games

• They lost more games than they won

How do you list numbers from least to greatest using a number line?

• From left to right

• By their absolute value

• From right to left

• In any order

When ordering integers from greatest to least, which direction do you move on the number line?

• Bottom to top

• Top to bottom

• Right to left

• Left to right

What does the greater than symbol indicate in an inequality?

• The number on the right is larger

• The numbers are equal

• The number on the left is larger

• The number on the left is smaller

If 51 is further to the right than 36 on a number line, how would you write this as an inequality?

• 36 = 51

• 51 > 36

• 36 > 51

• 51 < 36
