Answer:

Use a number line to find each sum. a.

Answer: –3

b.

Answer: –9

Find

. Subtract the lesser absolute value from the greater absolute value. Since the number with the greater absolute value is –14, the sum is negative.

Answer:

Find

.

Both numbers are negative, so the sum is negative.

Answer:

Stocks In the past year, a publishing company’s stock went from $52.08 per share to $70.87 per share. Find the change in the price of the stock. Explore

The stock price began at $52.08 per share and ended at $70.87. You need to determine the change in price for the year.

Plan

Subtract to find the change in price. ending price

70.87

minus

beginning price

52.08

Solve To subtract 52.08, add its inverse. Subtract the absolute values. The absolute value of 70.87 is greater, so the result is positive.

Answer: The price of the stock changed by $18.79. Examine The problem asks for the change in a stock’s price in the past year. Since the change in price was positive, the price increased. This makes sense since the ending price is more than the beginning price.

Stocks The stock in a company went from $46.98 to $35.09 over a one-month period. Find the change in price for the stock. Answer: –$11.89
