First we need to find he length of each side by
counting the squares.
8 cm
6 cm
6 cm
The distance
around the
outside of a shape
is called the
perimeter.
8 cm
The perimeter of the shape is 8 + 6 + 8 + 6 = 28cm.
Now find the
perimeter of these
shapes. They are
not drawn to
scale.

1) SOLVE R + 16 = -7
1.
Draw “the river” to
separate the
equation into 2 sides
2.
Subtract 16 from
both sides
3.
Simplify vertically
4.
Check your answer
by substituting your
answer back into the
problem
- 16 -16
r
= -23
-23 + 16 = -7
2) SOLVE X + 2 = -3
GET THE VARIABLE BY ITSELF. WHAT IS
YOUR FIRST STEP?
1.
Add 2 to both sides
2.
Subtract 2 from both sides
3.
Add 3 to both sides
4.
Subtract 3 from both sides

A number line has many functions. Previously, we learned
that numbers to the right of zero are positive and numbers to
the left of zero are negative. By putting points on the
number line, we can graph values.
If one were to start at zero and move seven places to the right,
this would represent a value of positive seven. If one were to
start at zero and move seven places to the left, this would
represent a value of negative seven.

Both of these numbers, positive seven (+7) and negative seven
(-7), represent a point that is seven units away from the origin.
The absolute value of a number is the distance between that
number and zero on a number line. Absolute value is shown by
placing two vertical bars around the number as follows:
5 The absolute value of five is five.
-3 The absolute value of negative three is three.

EXAMPLE 2: (-2) + 5
1. Our car starts from 0 facing right.
2. It then backs up 2 units (to the
left) because it sees the - sign.
EXAMPLE 3: 5 – 3
1. Our car still starts at 0 facing
right.
2. It then moves forward 5 units.

EXAMPLES OF EQUALS
The sum of 4 and 19 is 23
4 + 19 = 23
The difference of 14 and 5 is 9
14 - 5 = 9
15 less than 6 becomes 9
15 – 6 = 9
EXAMPLES OF EQUALS
