Cluster Connections
In this lesson, students continue to develop a unified
understanding of numbers. At Grade 6, students were
introduced to the concept of negative numbers. In this lesson
students begin to apply the operation of addition to negative
integers. Some key understandings for students are the
following:
This lesson provides an excellent opportunity to connect ideas
in this cluster: Apply and extend previous understandings
of operations with fractions to add, subtract, multiply, and
divide rational numbers.
• The absolute value of a number is the distance from zero.
• Addition can be represented on both vertical and
horizontal number lines.
• The sum of an addition expression can be shown as
distance in a positive or negative direction.
This will also lay the foundations for further work with negative
rational numbers in the Grade 8 standards.

Integrate Mathematical
Practices MP.5
This lesson provides an opportunity to address
this Mathematical Practice standard. It calls for
students to select tools as appropriate, to solve
problems. In Explore Activity 1, students use
counters to add positive and negative integers.
In Explore Activity 2, students use a number line
to add negative integers, and in Example 1,
students work with paper and pencil, using
absolute value to add two same-sign integers.
Math Background
To add means to combine or form the union of
two disjoint sets. For example: (-a) + (-b) =
-(a + b), where a + b is the sum of a and b.
The Closure Property for integer addition states
that if a and b are integers, then a + b is also an
integer.
Addition is commutative: a + b = b + a.
Addition is also associative:
(a + b) + c = a + (b + c).

Interactive example available online
my.hrw.com
Connect the concept of negative integers to a football game, where a loss of 3 yards on a
play is expressed as -3 and a loss of 11 yards on the next play is -11. The total loss on the
two plays is -3 + (-11) = -14.
Mathematical Practices
Point out that -7 + (-6) is the opposite of 7 + 6. The addends in each expression are the
same distance from 0; thus, they are opposites and have the same absolute value.
Focus on Math Connections
Mathematical Practices
• Explain how you know that -5 + (-8) is equal to -8 + (-5). Addition is commutative;
changing the order of the addends does not change the sum.
Questioning Strategies
• If you were to graph -7 + (-6) on a number line, would it be to the left or the right of
-7? Explain. It would be to the left. On a number line, values decrease from right to left;
-11 < -7.
YOUR TURN
Mathematical Practices
Point out that when adding integers with the same sign, there is a pattern for the signs of
the sums. For two negative numbers, the pattern for the signs is (-) + (-) = (-). For two
positive numbers, the pattern for the signs is (+) + (+) = (+).
Focus on Patterns
Elaborate
Talk About It
Summarize the Lesson
Ask: What do you think is the most efficient way to add two integers that have the
same sign? Sample answer: Add the absolute values of each integer, and then use
the sign of the integers for the sum. This method is faster than taking time to draw a
number line or assemble counters.
GUIDED PRACTICE
Engage with the Whiteboard
For Exercises 3–8, have students show each addition on the number lines provided,
and explain how they knew where to begin on the number line. Students can take
turns showing the different steps, such as plotting the first addend, counting spaces to
reach the products, and so on.
Avoid Common Errors
Exercises 9–13, 15–16 Some students may forget to attach the sign of the integers to the
sum after adding. Remind students that the sum of two negative numbers must include
the negative sign.
Exercise 14 Some students may write a negative sign in the sum because all of the
exercises before it were negative. Remind students to look at each exercise carefully to
identify the sign being used.

Some students may benefit from physically
acting out the addition of integers. Tape or draw
a 6 to -6 number line on the classroom floor,
with numbers about one step apart. Place
students, one at a time, facing the number line.
Guide them to pace out an addition, moving
left to add two negative integers and right to
add two positive ones. For example, to add
-2 + (-3), a student should stand at -2 and
move 3 steps to the left to stand on -5. Invite
students to challenge one another to step out
various additions.
When adding integers, think:
• If the signs are the same, find the sum.
• If the signs are different, find the difference.
Have students predict the sign of the sum of the
following exercises without doing any
calculations.

• The number of units you move on the number line is equal to the absolute value of the
second addend.
• If the second addend is positive, you move to the right on the number line, which is the
positive direction.
• If the second addend is negative, you move to the left on the number line, which is
the negative direction.

This lesson provides an opportunity to address
this Mathematical Practice standard. It calls for
students to select tools as appropriate, to solve
problems. In Explore Activity 1, students use
number lines to add integers with different signs.
In Explore Activity 2, students use colored
counters to add integers with different signs, and
in Example 1, students work with paper and
pencil, using absolute value to add integers with
different signs.
Math Background
Every integer is a real number. The opposite of
any real number a is -a. The Additive Inverse
Property states that the sum of any real number
and its opposite is 0. So, a + (-a) = 0. Zero is
neither positive nor negative, and zero is its own
opposite.
Zero pairs are formed by combining opposite
integers. When zero is added or subtracted from
any number, that number is unchanged. This
applies to all real numbers and is known as the
Identity Property of Addition, a + 0 = a, or the
Identity Property of Subtraction, a - 0 = a.

Summarize the Lesson
Ask: How do you add integers with different signs? First, find the absolute value of
each number. Next, find the difference between the absolute values of the two
addends. Finally, use the sign of the integer with the greater absolute value in the sum.
GUIDED PRACTICE
Engage with the Whiteboard
For Exercises 1–4, have students draw arrows above the number lines to show the
addition. Invite students to explain how they knew where to begin the arrows. For
Exercises 5–8, have students circle the zero pairs in each model and then write the sum.

Exercise 11 Some students may forget to record the negative sign in the answer when
adding integers by finding absolute value. Encourage these students to check the sign on
every sum.
Exercise 12 Remind students that the sum of any real number and its opposite is 0.
Encourage students to use mental math for this type of exercise.
Exercise 13 Remind students that when zero is added to or subtracted from any number,
that number is unchanged. This applies to all real numbers and is known as the Identity

Some students will benefit from using tiles
marked with a - or + sign rather than
unmarked red and yellow counters. Provide
students with such tiles and demonstrate that
the process is the same as when they are using
red and yellow tiles. For example, represent -3
with three - tiles and 5 with five + tiles. Make
three zero pairs. There are two + tiles left
unpaired, so the sum is 2.
Give each pair of students a set of related

How do you subtract integers? Sample answer: Because addition and subtraction
are inverse operations, you can subtract an integer by adding its opposite.
Think: n - 1 = n + (-1).

• How do you decide which direction the arrow should point? Explain. The arrow points
right if you are adding a positive number because positive numbers increase as you move
to the right of 0. The arrow points left if you are adding a negative number because
negative numbers decrease as you move to the left of 0.
Questioning Strategies
• Can you subtract the numbers in any order? No. Subtraction is not commutative;
a - b = b - a is not true for all real numbers a and b (e.g., 5 - 8 = -3, but 8 - 5 = 3).

Practices MP.2
This lesson provides an opportunity to address
this Mathematical Practice standard. It calls for
students to create and use representations to
organize, record, and communicate mathematical ideas. In Explore Activity 1, students represent
subtracting integers by using counters. In Explore
Activity 2 and Example 1, students use number
lines to represent subtraction of integers.
Math Background
Subtraction is formally defined as addition of the
opposite, or additive inverse. The integers are
closed under the operations of addition and
subtraction, which means that adding or
subtracting any two integers will produce
another integer. However, unlike addition, there
is no commutative property for subtraction,
because a - b = b - a is not true for all real
numbers a and b (e.g., 5 - 3 = 2, but
3 - 5 = -2).
Also, unlike addition, there is no associative
property for subtraction (e.g., 3 - (6 - 5) = 2,
but (3 - 6) - 5 = -8).

CC Mathematical Practices
Ask: What can you say about the answer when a positive integer is subtracted from a
negative one? Subtracting a positive integer is the same as adding a negative integer, so the
answer will be a negative integer.
CC Mathematical Practices
• If you reverse the order of integers, -5 - 2, will you get the same answer? Explain. No.
Addition is commutative, but subtraction is not commutative. You will get -7.
Questioning Strategies
• What is the relationship between addition and subtraction? What does that tell you about
subtracting a negative number from another number? Addition and subtraction are
inverse operations. Subtracting a negative integer is the same as adding a positive
number.
YOUR TURN
Avoid Common Errors
Students build fluency with integer
subtraction using an interactive
number line.
Some students may have difficulty in rewriting subtraction as the addition of an opposite.
You may want to have them model the subtractions with counters to reinforce that the zero
pair with either the positive or negative counters crossed out represents adding the
opposite.

Elaborate
Talk About It
Summarize the Lesson
Ask: How would you explain in your own words how to subtract integers? In
particular, how do you determine the sign of the difference? To subtract an integer,
add the opposite of the integer. If the two addends have different signs, apply the rules for
adding integers with unlike signs: subtract the lesser absolute value from the greater, and
use the sign of the addend with the greater absolute value.
GUIDED PRACTICE

Visual Cues
Have students explore addition and subtraction
of integers on a calculator. Help them to
distinguish between the calculator’s subtraction
key - and the opposite or negative sign (-).
Point out that most calculators color code the
operation keys so that the addition + and
subtraction keys look the same but very different
from the opposite key (-). Encourage students
to try subtracting with the opposite key to
reinforce how the keys are distinct. Then have
students rewrite each difference and check both
expressions on a calculator.
The rule a - b = a + (-b) has important
implications for interpreting expressions on the
number line. Replacing a + sign by a - sign
reverses the direction of the motion. Thus,
3 - (-2) -5 or 3 + 2 + (-5) could be interpreted as: Move 3 places to the right, then move
2 more places to the right, then move 5 places
to the left. The value of the expression is 0.

This lesson provides an opportunity to address
this Mathematical Practice standard. It which calls
for students to use a problem-solving model…to
determine a solution. Students solve real-world
problems by identifying important information,
formulating a plan, solving the problem, and
evaluating their solution to make sure it is
reasonable.
Math Background
The same properties students learned for whole
number addition are used for adding integers.
The Commutative and Associative properties
allow addition of three or more addends to be
rewritten in the most convenient order. Generally,
this involves first grouping the positives and then
grouping the negatives. Be certain students keep
the sign with its number when they change the
order.
Subtraction is formally defined as addition of the
opposite, or additive inverse. So, once you rewrite
subtraction as the addition of the opposite, you
can regroup the numbers as you would in an
addition problem.

Mathematical Practices
• How does using the Associative Property help you simplify an expression involving the
addition of more than two numbers? It permits you to regroup the numbers in a way that
makes it easier to add the numbers.
Questioning Strategy
• If you do not apply the properties to reorder the problem, will the answer be the same?
Explain. Yes, because the gains and losses will remain the same. Applying the properties
simply makes simplifying the expression easier.

13. Sports Cameron is playing 9 holes of golf.
He needs to score a total of at most 15 over
par on the last four holes to beat his best
golf score. On the last four holes, he scores
5 over par, 1 under par, 6 over par, and 1
under par.
a. Before the game ends, Lee answers
a 275-point question correctly, a
70-point question correctly, and a
50-point question incorrectly. Write
and find the value of an expression to
find Lee’s final score.
5-1+6-1=9
b. Is Cameron’s score on the last four
holes over or under par?
-350 + 275 +70 - 50 = -55
over par
b. Barry’s final score is 45. Which player
had the greater final score?
c. Did Cameron beat his best golf score?
3 feet underground
15. Explain the Error Jerome tries to find the
value of the expression 3 - 6 + 5 by first
applying the Commutative Property. He
rewrites the expression as 3 - 5 + 6.
Explain what is wrong with Jerome’s
approach.
The Commutative Property does
not apply to subtraction:

from his brother. He pays his brother back 3 dollars. How
much does Tim still owe his brother? -1 - 6 + 3 = -4; $4
22. Critical Thinking Mary has $10 in savings. She owes her parents $50. She
does some chores and her parents pay her $12. She also gets $25 for her
birthday from her grandmother. Does Mary have enough money to pay
her parents what she owes them? If not, how much more money does she
need? Explain.
No; the total amount she could pay her parents is
10 + 12 + 25 = 47. 50 - 47 = 3. So she still needs $3.

23. Draw Conclusions An expression involves subtracting two numbers
from a positive number. Under what circumstances will the value of the
expression be negative? Give an example.
a. During which hour did more
customers leave than arrive?
The sum of the absolute values of the other two numbers
3:00 to 4:00
must be greater than the value of the first number.
b. There were 75 customers in the store
at 1:00. The store must be emptied of
customers when it closes at 5:00. How
many customers must leave the store
between 4:00 and 5:00?
3 - 6 + 5 = 2 and

Tim owes his brother 1 dollar. He borrows 6 more dollars
17. Multistep Rob collects data about how
many customers enter and leave a store
every hour. He records a positive number
for customers entering the store each hour
and a negative number for customers
leaving the store each hour.
14. Herman is standing on a ladder that is
partly in a hole. He starts out on a rung
that is 6 feet under ground, climbs up

5
__
-2 ← 3 - 5 = -2
4 0 ← 80 - 40 = 40
__
3 8 ← -2 + 40 = 38
So, 54 - 38 = 16.
