What Inequality symbol would go between -8 and 8 to compare them?
The less sign (<), because -8 is less than 8

-3
Look at the sign outside of the absolute value. Remember it is waiting for the three to come out from the absolute value bar before it attaches itself to the 3.
I am defined as the distance a whole number is from zero. I am always positive. What am I?
Absolute Value
9 + (+1)
10
Same signs add and keep.
What Inequality symbol would go between -18 and -81 to compare them?
The greater than (>) sign. Because -18 is closer to 0, so it has a larger value than -81
-12 + (3)
-9
opposite signs subtract. Keep the sign of the bigger number, then you will be exact.

I am defined as a whole number, greater than, less than, or equal to zero. I can be positive or negative. What am I?

What Inequality symbol would go between -21 and -21 to compare them?
The equal to symbol (=). Because they are the same value.

It's the same as saying 2-4.
I am a number less than zero. the bigger I get, the smaller my value. What am I?

opposite signs, subtract. Keep the sign of the larger number then you will be exact.
What Inequality symbol would go between -8 and -8 to compare them?
The equal (=) to sign.
10+ (-11)

Opposite signs subtract
0
break down the problem. The absolute values will both come out +. But look at the sign waiting on the outside for it. so -5 + 5 is 0.
I am a number greater than zero. The larger I get, the greater my value. What am I?
Positive number
5- (-7)

Same signs add and keep.

I am a set of symbols used to compare integers and other numbers. I can show up to indicate that one number is greater, less than, or equal to another number. I am often compared to a hungry allegator. what am I?
