\"\"

\

The absolute value of a number describes the distance of the number from zero.

\

a.

\

GEOMETRIC:

\

Draw a number line.Label the integers from \"\" to \"\".

\

\"\"

\

\"\"

\

b.

\

Fill in the table based on the number line drawn in part a.

\

Since \"\" is \"\" and \"\" is \"\".

\

\"\". Since \"\" is \"\", \"\" , \"\".

\

Therefore, \"\".

\

TABULAR: make a table of the integers on the number line and their distance from zero.

\

VERBAL:

\

When \"\" is less than \"\", then any number added to or subtracted from \"\" will be less than the same number added to or subtracted from \"\".

\

When \"\" is greater than \"\", then any number added to or subtracted from \"\" is greater than the same number added to or subtracted from \"\".
