What is the purpose of adding integers?

The purpose of adding integers is to find the total sum or result when combining two or more integer values together. This operation is commonly used in mathematics to calculate quantities, solve problems, and represent relationships among different values.

How do you represent positive and negative integers on a number line?

To represent positive integers on a number line, you move to the right from the origin (usually zero) a number of units equal to the integer value. For negative integers, you move to the left a number of units equal to the absolute value of the integer (positive value) starting from the origin. The positive integers are represented to the right of zero, while the negative integers are represented to the left on the number line.

What is the result when adding two integers with the same sign?

When adding two integers with the same sign, the result will always be an integer with the same sign as the original integers. This is because adding integers with the same sign means they have the same direction or magnitude, resulting in a sum that continues in that direction or magnitude.

What is the result when adding two integers with different signs?

When adding two integers with different signs (one positive and one negative), you subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value and keep the sign of the number with the larger absolute value.

How do you add an integer with zero?

To add an integer with zero, you simply keep the integer the same as adding zero to any number does not change its value. The sum would be the original integer value.

Can the sum of two positive integers be negative? Why or why not?

No, the sum of two positive integers cannot be negative. When adding two positive integers, the result will always be a positive integer because adding positive numbers will only result in a larger positive number, not a negative one. The basic rule of arithmetic dictates that the sum of positive integers will always yield a positive result.

Can the sum of two negative integers be positive? Why or why not?

No, the sum of two negative integers cannot be positive. When two negative integers are added, the negative signs are combined to produce a negative sum. This is because negative numbers represent values less than zero, and adding two negative values would result in a value that is even further below zero, hence remaining negative.

Is the sum of an even number of negative integers always negative? Explain.

No, the sum of an even number of negative integers can be positive, negative, or zero depending on the specific integers being added. When adding two negative integers together, the result will be negative. However, when adding an even number of negative integers, the negatives can cancel each other out in pairs, resulting in a positive sum or even reaching zero if all pairs cancel out perfectly.

Is the sum of an odd number of negative integers always negative? Explain.

No, the sum of an odd number of negative integers is not always negative. When adding an odd number of negative integers, the negative signs cancel each other out and the sum can result in a positive or negative number depending on the values of the integers being added. For example, when adding -3, -4, and -5, the sum would be -12, which is negative. However, when adding -2, -1, -3, and -5, the sum would be -11, which is positive.

Can the sum of three integers be zero? Explain.

Yes, the sum of three integers can be zero if the integers are a combination of positive, negative, and/or zero values that cancel each other out when added together. For example, 1, -1, and 0 are three integers whose sum is zero, as 1 + (-1) + 0 = 0. In general, as long as there is a mix of positive and negative integers in the combination, it is possible for the sum of three integers to be zero.
