2.3 Subtracting Integers

2.3 Objective A: Subtract integers.

To subtract integers, we will write the subtraction problem as an addition problem.

Then we can use the two rules for addition from section 2.2.

Ex. 1. Subtract.

a. 13 – 4

b. -8 – 2

c. 11 – (-15)

d. -9 – (-1)

e. 6 – 9

f. -14 – 5

g. -3 – (-4)

2.3 Objective B: Add and Subtract integers.

Ex. 2 Simplify

a. −+ − < − - − (−.)=.0 + (−-) − ? − (−/)

Subtracting Two Numbers

If a and b are numbers, then ) − @ = ) + (−@)

AND

) − (−@) = ) + @

2.3 Objective C: Evaluate an Algebraic Expression by Subtracting.

Ex. 3 Evaluate 2: − ; for the given replacement values.

A) x = 4 and y = -4 B) x = 1 and y = -18

2.3 Objective D: Solve Problems by Subtracting integers.

Ex. 4. The highest point in Asia is the top of Mount Everest, at a height of 29,028 feet

above sea level. The lowest point is the Dead Sea, which is 1,312 feet below sea level.

How much higher is Mount Everest than the Dead Sea?
