Quiz on 8A.10 & 8A.11 Tomorrow! Review Integer Rules.

ADDING
Adding a positive and a positive or a negative and a negative
1. When adding two numbers with the same sign add like normal
2. take the sign of the numbers.
+3 + +3 = + 6 -3 + -3 = -6

Adding a positive and a negative or a negative and a positive
1. Take the sign of the number further from zero, that will be your sign.
2. Then subtract like normal.
3. Your answer is the sign and what you subtracted.
+ 3 + -6 = - 3 - 3 + +6 = + 3

SUBTRACTING
1. always change the subtraction sign to an addition sign
2. change the sign of the second number
3. leave the first number
4. Follow addition rules above
Sometimes this is referred to as keep, change, change.
1. +3 - +3 1. +3 - -3 1. -3 - +3
2. +3 + -3 2. +3 + +3 2. -3 + -3

MULTIPLYING & DIVIDING
If the signs are the same your answer is a positive
-3 x -3 = +9 +3 x +3 = +9 -3 / -3 = +1 +3 / +3 = +1
If the signs are different your answer is a negative
-3 x +3 = - 9 +3 x -3 = -9 +3 / -3 = -1 -3 / +3 = -1

homework #42 due Monday

1. Factor out the GCF of each polynomial in the equation below. Simplify any like terms.
6a^2b^2 – 18 ab^2 + 54a^2b^2 = 30ab^2 + 48 a^2b^2– 66 ab^2

2. Explain how you would solve the equation in steps or paragraph form.
