Happy Monday and welcome back everyone! I am in a great mood today because I got 15/15 on my spanish test! Studying really does work! Anyways, today we will be talking about negative numbers and when we see and use them in real life.
Negative numbers are numbers to the left of zero on a number line. You'll see negative numbers with negative signs that look like this... - . For example, here is negative eight, -8. Negative eight's absolute value is positive eight, +8, or 8! Negative numbers are used to tell how less of something you have or how far away you are from zero in a negative way. For example, we use this today... when you're scuba diving three feet away from the surface of the ocean you're -8 down. If you go to the bank and owe 25 dollars.... that's -25. Negative numbers aren't that hard when you think about it. Just remember that they are always to the left of zero on a number line and they have negative signs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
