For example: (+3) + ( 7) + ( 1) (), () + ( 1) + (+1), (+1) + ( 4) + () 14. For example, to end up with (+1) the boxes must add to. Only pairs of (+1) and ( 1) can add to, but there are 3 boxes to fill in, so you cannot pair one of the terms and the boxes cannot add to. 15. a) +1 6 1 4 3 +2 All the rows, columns, and diagonals should add to 6. Rows: (+1) + ( 6) + ( 1) ( 6) ( 4) + () + ( 6) ( 3) + (+2) + () ( 6) Columns: (+1) + ( 4) + ( 3) ( 6) ( 6) + () + (+2) ( 6) ( 1) + + () ( 6) Diagonals: (+1) + () + () ( 6) ( 3) + () + ( 1) ( 6) b) The middle row shows the Magic Sum to be +9. This means that that bottom right entry must be +4. The remaining entries can be found by completing each column, row, or diagonal to get +9. +2 +1 +6 +7 +3 1 +5 +4 Rows: (+2) + (+1) + (+6) (+9) (+7) + (+3) + ( 1) (+9) + (+5) + (+4) (+9) Columns: (+2) + (+7) + (+9) (+1) + (+3) + (+5) (+9) (+6) + ( 1) + (+4) (+9) Diagonals: (+2) + (+3) + (+4) (+9) + (+3) + (+6) (+9) c) Use trial and error to complete the square. +3 4 +1 +2 1 +4 3 The sum is.

For example, adding 6 to each term of the answer for part c) creates a Magic Square whose values range from 1 to +2. 3 1 8 6 4 7 9 16. a) True. For example, when you add a positive integer to a positive integer the result is a larger positive number. E.g. (+25) + (+1) (+35) b) True. For example, when you add two negative integers the result is a more negative number. E.g. () + ( 8) ( 13) c) False. For example, if you add a smaller positive number to a bigger negative number the result is a negative number. E.g. ( 4) + (+2) () 17. a), +1, 1, +2,, +3, 3, +4, 4, +5 For example, one possible rule is add +1, then add, then add +3, then add 4, and so on. b) 1,, 1, 1,, 3,, 8, 13, 1, 34 For example, the pattern is to add the two preceding terms to get the next term. 18. The sum of the integers from to 5 is. For example, the sum is because we are adding 5 pairs of opposite integers. Each opposite pair adds to. 19.

There are 5 blue counters left over. f) (+11) + ( 3) (). 11 red counters and 3 blue counters. There are 8 red counters left over. 9. a) (+5) + ( 1) () 11. a) (5) + (+38) (+13) 5 15 1 +5 +1 +15 ( 15) + (+38) (+23) 15 1 +5 +1 +15 +2 +25 Since (+23) (+13) +1, the second sum is 1 more than the first sum. b) For example: (+125) + (2) (+73) +2 +4 +6 +1 +12 4 3 1 +1 +2 +3 +4 +5 b) (+1) + () (+5) (+125) + ( 32) (+93) +2 +4 +6 +1 +12 +1 +2 +3 +4 +5 +6 +7 +9 +1 c) ( + ( 15) ( 15) 15 1 +5 +1 +15 +2 d) ( 1) + (+1) 1 9 8 7 6 4 3 1 e) ( 3) + ( 35) ( 65) 65 6 5 45 4 35 3 5 15 1 f) (+35) + () ( 15) 15 1 +5 +1 +15 +2 +25 +3 +35 1. a) () + () ( 7) b) ( 4) + (+5) (+1) c) ( 6) + (+2) ( 4) d) (+4) + ( 7) ( 3) e) () + () ( 7) f) (+1) + ( 8) (+2) Since (+93) (+73) (+2), the second sum is 2 more than the first sum. 12. a) Always true. For example, when you add two negative integers the result is always a bigger negative number. E.g. ( 4) + ( 6) ( 1) b) Not always true. For example, (+5) + () (+3). c) Always true. For example, in order for two integers to add to zero they have to be the same distance away from but in the opposite direction. E.g. () + (+5) 13. 1 +3 +4 4 3 +2 +1 14.

Yes. The original number is always one more than the result. For example, after the first step you have one more than you started with. After the second step you have the number you started with subtracted from 9. After the third step you have the number you started with subtracted from 1. After the final step you have one less than the number you started with. So the end result is that the four steps result in a subtraction of one from the original number. To reverse the process, you just need to add one to the result. 4. The original number is 14. The steps are as follows: Start with +1. Subtract from 12. 12 (+1) (+2) Find the opposite. () Subtract 9. () ( 9) (+7) Add 7. (+7) + (+7) (+14) 5. The original number is 28. The steps are as follows: Start with 12. Add 36. Subtract 18. Add 9. Subtract 31. 6. For example, follow the steps below: Think of a number. Add +3 to your number. Subtract from the number. Add to the result. Subtract 6 from the result. Find the opposite of the result. Add twice the original number to the result. 7. The steps should have the overall effect of adding. For example: Think of a number. Take the opposite of your number. Subtract 6 from the result. Add to the result. Subtract 2 from the result. Add twice the original number to the result.

This means (+1) and (+2) must be the numbers. If (+2) is in the centre region then it will not be possible to make the left circle sum to. Therefore, (+1) is in the central region and (+2) is in the remaining region in the top circle. Now, in the left circle, the remaining two regions must add to give () because (+4) and (+1) are in the uppermost regions. The only way this can happen is if () and are in the left circle. The remaining regions in the circle on the right must sum to give ( 3) and this is only possible if ( 3) and are in the two remaining regions. Since must be in both the left and right circles, it must be in the region shared by them. This leaves () in the region belonging only to the circle on the left and ( 3) in the region belonging only to the circle on the right 6. regrouping: (+4) + (+5) + () + ( 1) + (+5) + (+1) (+4) + () + (+1) + ( +5) + ( 1) + (+5) (+4) + () + (+1) + (+3) The stock was up $3 from its value on January 1. 7. using a calculator: a) ( 128) + ( 65) + ( 38) (31) b) ( 373) + (8) + (+12) (69) 8. a) (+7) ( 4) + (+5) (+16) b) ( 1) + ( 3) (+4) ( 17) c) (+5) ( 8) (+13) d) (+4) + () (+38) 9. a) + 1 is greater than 1.
