To represent each situation using an integer, we can assign positive or negative values depending on the context.
1. Earned $100: We can represent this as +$100. The positive sign indicates that money was gained.
2. 800 ft gain in elevation: We can represent this as +800. The positive sign indicates an increase in elevation.
3. 12 degrees below 0°C: We can represent this as -12. The negative sign indicates temperatures below zero.
4. 4 degrees above 0°F: We can represent this as +4. The positive sign indicates temperatures above zero.
5. A debt of $25: We can represent this as -$25. The negative sign indicates a debt or money owed.
6. Lost 5 pounds: We can represent this as -5. The negative sign indicates a loss of weight.
Remember, positive numbers represent gains or increases, while negative numbers represent losses or decreases.
