Show answers and working
  1. 1. -12

    Subtracting 7 is the same as adding -7. -5 + (-7) = -12

  2. 2. 9

    Subtracting (-8) is the same as adding 8. 1 + 8 = 9

  3. 3. -12

    Subtracting 4 is the same as adding -4. -8 + (-4) = -12

  4. 4. -16

    Subtracting 8 is the same as adding -8. -8 + (-8) = -16

  5. 5. 49

    Multiply the sizes: 7 × 7 = 49. Same signs give positive, different signs give negative. Answer: 49

  6. 6. -4

    Start at -14 on a number line. Move 10 right. You land on -4.

  7. 7. 16

    Multiply the sizes: 4 × 4 = 16. Same signs give positive, different signs give negative. Answer: 16

  8. 8. 8

    Start at 17 on a number line. Move 9 left. You land on 8.

  9. 9. 10

    Multiply the sizes: 2 × 5 = 10. Same signs give positive, different signs give negative. Answer: 10

  10. 10. -210

    Multiply the sizes: 15 × 14 = 210. Same signs give positive, different signs give negative. Answer: -210

  11. 11. -8

    Subtracting (-3) is the same as adding 3. -11 + 3 = -8

  12. 12. -150

    Multiply the sizes: 30 × 5 = 150. Same signs give positive, different signs give negative. Answer: -150
