7th Grade

CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.7.NS.A.1 Apply and extend previous understandings of addition and subtraction to add and subtract rational numbers; represent addition and subtraction on a horizontal or vertical number line diagram.7.NS.A.1

  • a

    CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.7.NS.A.1.A Describe situations in which opposite quantities combine to make 0. For example, a hydrogen atom has 0 charge because its two constituents are oppositely charged.7.NS.A,A

  • b

    CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.7.NS.A.1.B Understand p + q as the number located a distance |q| from p, in the positive or negative direction depending on whether q is positive or negative. Show that a number and its opposite have a sum of 0 (are additive inverses). Interpret sums of rational numbers by describing real-world contexts.7.NS.A.1.B

  • c

    CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.7.NS.A.1.C Understand subtraction of rational numbers as adding the additive inverse, p - q = p + (-q). Show that the distance between two rational numbers on the number line is the absolute value of their difference, and apply this principle in real-world contexts.7.NSA.1.C

  • d

    CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.7.NS.A.1.D Apply properties of operations as strategies to add and subtract rational numbers.7.NS.A.1.D
