Rules For Adding Two Signed Numbers: A. Signs are the same – Add the numbers 1. ___________________ Take the given sign 2. ___________________ B. Signs are the different – the numbers 1. Subtract ___________________ Take the sign of the larger number 2. ___________________
Example 3: Find each sum. B. A. Signs are the same Try these… A. C. Signs are different Find each sum. B. C.
Example 4: Find each sum. B. A. 1. 2 C. D. -12. 3
Try these… Find each sum. A. B. C. D.
