Revision of the definitions of the integers and the opposite numbersopposite numbersopposite numbers.

Procedurem43e53bae0c01ccdd_1528446435040_0Procedure

The students work individually using their computers. They are going to watch the method of writing the distance from zero to given number on the number linenumber linenumber line.

[Slideshow]

Students draw the conclusion:

The distance of any number from zero on the number line is called the absolute value of that number.m43e53bae0c01ccdd_1527752263647_0The distance of any number from zero on the number line is called the absolute value of that number.

The absolute valueabsolute valueabsolute value of number  – a we write as |- a|. The note |- a| = a we read as „the absolute value of the number – a equals a”.

Task
The students determine on the number linenumber linenumber line the distance of coordinate 3 from coordinate 0. They say the distance equals 3.

[Ilustration 1]

Next, on the number line the students specify the distance of the following numbers from zero:

a) 1

b) 4

c) 6

d) – 1

e) – 2

f) – 5

g) – 7

h) – 8

[Ilustration 2]

The student complete the task and come up with the conclusion.

Task
Calculate:

a) |- 3|

b) |8|

c) |-10|

d) |109|

e) |0|

Conclusion:
The absolute value of each number different from zero is a positive number.
The absolute value of zero equals zero.
m43e53bae0c01ccdd_1527752256679_0The absolute value of each number different from zero is a positive number.
The absolute value of zero equals zero.

Task
The students indicate the pairs of the opposite numbersopposite numbersopposite numbers on the number linenumber linenumber line.

a) 5 i – 5

b) – 7 i 7

Next, they calculate the absolute valueabsolute valueabsolute values of these numbers and draw a conclusion.

Conclusion
The opposite numbersopposite numbersopposite numbers have the same absolute value.
The teacher writes down some examples on the board.

|2| ∙ |7| = |2 ∙ 7|

|- 9| ∙ |8| = |- 9 ∙ 8|

|- 4| ∙ |- 3| = |- 4 ∙ (-3)|

The students come up with the conclusion based on the examples.

Conclusion
The product of the absolute values of the numbers equals the absolute value of the product of these numbers.m43e53bae0c01ccdd_1527712094602_0The product of the absolute values of the numbers equals the absolute value of the product of these numbers.

An extra task:
Calculate:

a) |-3|

b) |- 2 + 1|

c) |7 ∙ 4 – 50|

d) - |- 8 +7|

e) |2| - |- 1|

Lesson summarym43e53bae0c01ccdd_1528450119332_0Lesson summary

The students do the summarising tasks.

Then they sum up the class drawing the conclusions to memorise:

- The distance of any number from zero on the number linenumber linenumber line is called the absolute valueabsolute valueabsolute value of that number.

- The absolute value of each number different from zero is a positive numberpositive numberpositive number.

- The absolute value of zero equals zero.

- The opposite numbersopposite numbersopposite numbers have the same absolute value.
