Problem Solving Strategy: Working Backwards 7.13C: Selecting the appropriate problem solving strategy. Mr. Brewer’s 7th Grade Math September 9, 2009 Alto, Texas has a population of 1407 people. New Summerfield, Texas has a population of 1388 people. What is the difference between the two towns’ populations? A. 21 B. 24 C. 19 D. 2795 The Texas Rangers had an incredible start to the year. They scored 387 runs during the first 43 games. If they scored the same amount of runs every game, how many points did they score per game? A. 7 B. 9 C. 6 D. 2 The zoo uses a total of 268 pounds of food every day for the 67 animals they keep. If each animal ate the same amount of food, how many pounds of food does each animal eat? A. 5 B. 3 C. 17 D. 4 The Liberty Middle School 7th grade football team scored 63 points in each of their first four football games. How many total points did they score in their first four games? A. 378 B. 252 C. 48 D. 53 Warm-Up Copy these numbers in your ‘Warm Up’ section and order them from least to greatest. There are four sets of numbers to order: Set A, Set B, Set C, and Set D. A. 567 356 0 B. 1.2 1.55 1.58 C. 5.65 56.5 0 D. -7 5 0 -5 867 1.9 565 7 24 -23 0 -565 -24 Comparing and Ordering Integers 7.1A: Compare and order integers and positive rational numbers. Mr. Brewer’s 7th Grade Math September 9, 2009 Reviewing Vocabulary • Integers – The set of all whole numbers, their opposite numbers, and zero (what’s on the number line (-8, 0, 4, -8 etc…)) • Negative numbers – The set of all real numbers less than zero (-8, -4, -2, etc…) • Rational numbers – Any number that can be written as a fraction (3/4, 8, -8, .40) Reviewing Vocabulary • Integers – Give an example of an integer? – Give an example of something that is not an integer? • Negative numbers – Give an example of a negative number? – Give an example of something that is not a negative? • Rational numbers – – Give two examples of a rational number? – Give an example of something that is not a rational number? What’s an Opposite? The opposite of a number is the same distance from 0 on a number line as the original number, just in the opposite direction. –4 and 4 are opposites –4 4 • • –5–4–3–2–1 0 1 2 3 4 5 Negative integers Positive integers 0 is neither positive nor negative Graph the integer -7 and its opposite on a number line. 7 units 7 units –7–6–5–4–3–2–1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 The opposite of –7 is 7. Graph the integer -5 and its opposite on a number line. 5 units 5 units –7–6–5–4–3–2–1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 The opposite of –5 is 5. The Number Line – Key Understandings • Negative integers closer to zero have a greater value than those numbers further from zero. • From any point on a number line, an integer’s value increases as you move right and decreases as you move left. –7 –6 –5 –4 –3 –2 –1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 The Number Line Order the following numbers using the number line. 6 -7 8 3 0 -2 -3 6 –7 –6 –5 –4 –3 –2 –1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 The Number Line 1. What two whole numbers fall between 4 & 7 on the number line? 2. Negative 3 lies the right or left of zero? 3. Tell me three numbers less than -2 on the number line? –7 –6 –5 –4 –3 –2 –1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Signs of Comparison • Less Than ‹ 4‹8 ‹ • “Four is less than eight” • Greater Than › 8›4 • “Eight is greater than eight” • Equal To = 8=8 • “Eight is equal to eight” › = Which Sign? < > = Which Sign? < > = Which Sign? < > = Which Sign? 4 5 < > = Which Sign? -8 -5 < > = Which Sign? Copy these numbers into your notes section and determine the appropriate sign. 10 2 -6 6 -2 -8 Where do we see negative integers in the real world? Do we see negative integers in sports? What about in geography? Highest and Lowest, USA Mt. McKinley Death Valley 20,320 Ft. - 282 Ft. Credit Cards Temperature? Altitude There are four people out on the ocean. 1. Floating on a raft 2. Scuba diving at -32 ft 3. In a boat 5 feet above the water. 4. Snorkeling at -1 ft Who is the highest, who is the lowest? Comparison: Altitude < > = Sports Which is the better play? A. B. C. D. E. Sack for 9 yards Run for 5 yards Incomplete for 0 yards Run, lose 1 yard Pass for 35 yards Comparison: Sports < > = Business Which business would you be least likely to buy? Most likely? A. B. C. D. A car wash that makes $500 per week. A restaurant that loses $200 per week. A diner that makes $200 per week. A CD store that loses $450 per week. Order these stores from best to worst (greatest to least). Credit Cards Who has less money? A. B. C. D. E. Bob owes $30 Mary owes $40 Mark owes $0 Marty owes $100 Dom owes $85 Order Least to Greatest Temperature Temperatures – All in degrees F • • • • • • McAllen, TX Mexico City Fairbanks, AK Athol, MA The Forks, ME Whitefish, MT 75 85 -10 28 -5 -15 Order these temperatures from least to greatest. • Put the following lists of numbers in order from greatest to least: -19, -20, 20, 19, -23, 34, -1 130, -25, 87, -125, 52, -94, 2 • Put the following lists of numbers in order from least to greatest: -9, -11, -15, -13, -7, -17, 0 -13, 12, -11, 10, -9, 8, -7, 6, -5 Integer Exercise • Instructions: Give 5 examples of positive and negative integers found in the real world. • For each example, describe in full sentences which integer is least in value and which is greatest in value and why?
