(iii) -15- (-2) – 71 – 8 + 6
Solution:
(i) 12 + (-3) + 5 – (-2)
= 12 – 3 + 5 + 2
= 9 + 7= 16

(ii) 39 – 35 + 7 – (-4) + 21
= 39 – 35 + 7 + 4 + 21
= 4 + 11 + 21
= 15 + 21 =36

(iii) -15 – (-2) – 71 – 8 + 6
= -15 + 2 – 71 – 8 + 6
= -13 – 79 + 6
= 92 + 6 = -86

Question 3.
Evaluate:
(i) |-13| – |-15|
(ii) |35 – 41| – |7-(-2)|
Solution:
(i) |-13| – |-15|
= +13 – 15 =-2

Question 5.
Find the successor and the predecessor of -199.
Solution:
Successor = -199 – 1 = -198
Predecessor = -199 – 1 = -200

Question 6.
Subtract the sum of -235 and 137 from -152.
Solution:
Sum of (-235 and 137)
= -235 + 137
= 137 – 235 = -98
Now, subtract the sum of (-235 and 137) from -152
= 152 – (-98)
= -152 + 98 = -54

Question 7.
What must be added to -176 to get -95?
Solution:
Let the number to be added = x
∴ -176 + x = -95
x = -95 + 176 = 81

Question 8.
What is the difference in height between a point 270 m above sea level and 80 m below sea level?
Solution:
Height above sea level = +270 m
Height below sea level = -80 m
Difference = +270 – (-80)
= 270 + 80 = 350 m

Question 13.
In a school, \(\frac { 25 }{ 54 }\) of the students are girls and the rest are boys. If the number of boys is 2030, find the number of girls.
Solution:
In a school,
Number of girls = \(\frac { 25 }{ 54 }\)
Then, number of boys = 1 – \(\frac { 25 }{ 54 }\) = \(\frac { 29 }{ 54 }\)
Number of boys = 2030
\(\frac { 29 }{ 54 }\) of total students = 2030
Total number of students = 2030 × \(\frac { 54 }{ 29 }\) = 3780
Number of girls = 3780 – 2030 = 1750

Solution:
Rashmi deposited in her account on Monday = ₹ 4370
Less withdrawal on Tuesday = ₹ 2875
So the Balance on Tuesday
= ₹ 4370 – ₹ 2875
= ₹ 1495
Again she deposited on Wednesday = ₹ 1550
Balance on Thursday
= ₹ 1495 + ₹ 1550 = ₹ 3045

Question 6.
Find the predecessor of 0.
Solution:
Predecessor of 0 = 0 – 1 = -1

Question 7.
Find the successor and the predecessor of the following integers:
(i) -31
(ii) -735
(iii) -240
Solution:
(i) Successor of -31 = -31 + 1 = -30
Predecessor of -31 = -31 – 1 = -32
(ii) Successor of -735 = -735 + 1 = -734
Predecessor of-735 = -735 – 1 = -736
(iii) Successor of -240 = -240 + 1 = -239
Predecessor of -240 = -240 – 1 = -241

Question 2.
What will be the sign of the product if we multiply 39 negative integers and 98 positive integers?
Solution:
39 is odd and 98 is even.
Product of 39 negative integers and 98 positive integers will be negative.

Question 3.
Use the sign >, < or = in the box to make the following statements true:
(i) (-15) + 38 ……… 27 + (-50)
(ii) (-13) × 0 × (-5) …….. (-7) × (-6) × 14
(iii) (-18) ÷ (-3) …….. (-10) + (-15) + 31
(iv) (-5) × (-7) × (-10) …….. (-1400) ÷ (-4)
Solution:
(i) (-15) + 38 ……. 27 + (-50)
LHS = -15 + 38 = 23
RHS = 27 – 50 = -23
(23) > (-23)

(ii) (-13) × 0 × (-5) ……. (-7) × (-6) × 14
LHS = -13 × 0 × (-5) = 0
and (-7) × (-6) × 14
RHS = 42 × 14 = 588
0 < 588

(iii) (-18) ÷ (-3) ……. (-10) + (-15) + 31
-18
LHS = -18 ÷ -3 = 6
RHS = (-10)+ (-15) + 31 = -25 + 31 = 6
6 = 6

(iv) (-5) × (-7) × (-10) ……… (-1400) ÷ (-4)
LHS = (-5) × (-7) × (-10) = 35 × (-10) = -350
RHS = (-1400) ÷ (-4) = -350

Solution:
(-45) ÷ (-15) ÷ (-3)
LHS = \(\frac { -45 }{ -15 }\) ÷ (-3) = 3 ÷ -3 = -1
and RHS = -45 ÷ (\(\frac { -15 }{ -3 }\))
= -45 ÷ 5
= -9
(-1) ≠ -9
No, not equal.

Question 5.
A cement company earns a profit of ₹ 8 per bag of white cement sold and a loss of ₹ 5 per bag of grey cement sold.
(i) The company sells 3000 bags of white cement and 5000 bags of grey cement in a month. What is its profit or loss?
(ii) What is the number of white cement bags it must sell to have neither profit nor loss, if the number of grey cement bags sold is 6400?
Solution:
Profit on one white cement bag = ₹ 8
and loss on one bag grey cement bag = ₹ 5
(i) On the sale of 3000 bags of white cement and 5000 bags of grey cement bags.
Sale = 3000 × 8 – 5000 × 5 = ₹ 24000 – ₹ 25000 = – ₹ 1000
There will be a loss of ₹ 1000

(ii) Loss on 6400 bags of grey cement = ₹ 6400 × 5 = 32000
In order to get a gain of ₹ 32000
The white cement bags be sold = \(\frac { 32000 }{ 8 }\) = 4000 bags

Question 6.
Simplify the following:
(i) (-7) + (-6) ÷ 2 – {(-5) × (-4) – (3 – 5)}
(ii) 11 – [7 – (5 – 3 (9 – \(\bar { 3-6 }\))}].
Solution:
(i) (-7) + (-6) ÷ 2 – {(-5) × (-4) – (3 – 5)}
= (-7) + (-6) ÷ 2 – [+20 – (-2)]
= (-7) + (-6) ÷ 2 – (20 + 2)
= (-7) + \(\frac { -6 }{ 2 }\) – 22
= (-7) + (-3) – 22
= -7 – 3 – 22
= -32

(ii) 11 – [7 – (5 – 3 (9 – \(\bar { 3-6 }\))}]
= 11 – [7 – {5 – 3 (9 – 3 + 6)}]
= 11 – [7 – {5 – 3 × 12}]
= 11 – [7 – {5 – 36}]
= 11 – [7 – {-31}]
= 11 – [7 + 31]
= 11 – 38
= -27
