This is because 0 is greater than every negative integer.
ii) False
0 is an integer as we know that every whole number is an integer and 0 is a whole number.
iii) True
0 is an integer that is neither positive nor negative. So, the opposite of zero is zero.
iv) False
Since 10 is greater than 6, -10 is smaller than -6.
v) True
This is because an absolute value is a positive number. For example, -2 is an integer, but its absolute value is 2 and it is greater than -2.
vi) True
This is because all negative integers are to the left of 0.
vii) True
This is because natural numbers are positive and every positive integer is greater than every negative integer.
viii) False
This is because the successor of -187 is equal to -186 (-186 + 1). In succession, we move from the left to the right along a number line.
ix) False
This is because the predecessor of -215 is -216 (-216 – 1). To find the predecessor, we move from the right to the left along a number line.

Question 10:
A car travelled 60 km to the north of Patna and then 90 km to the south from there. How far from Patna was the car finally?
ANSWER:
Let the distance covered in the direction of north be positive and that in the direction of south be negative.
Distance travelled to the north of Patna = 60 km
Distance travelled to the south of Patna = -90 km
Total distance travelled by the car = 60 + (-90)
= -30 km
The car was 30 km south of Patna.

Question 11:
A man bought some pencils for Rs 30 and some pens for Rs 90. The next day, he again bought some pencils for Rs 25. Then, he sold all the pencils for Rs 20 and the pens for Rs 70. What was his net gain or loss?
ANSWER:
Total cost price = Price of pencils + Price of pens
= 30 + 90 + 25
= Rs 145
Total amount sold = Price of pen + Price of pencils
= 20 + 70
= 90
Selling price – costing price = 90 −- 145
= −-55
The negative sign implies loss.
Hence, his net loss was Rs 55.

Question 11:
The point A is on a mountain which is 5700 metres above sea level and the point B is in a mine which is 39600 metres below sea level. Find the vertical distance between A and B.
Figure
ANSWER:
Let us consider the height above the sea level as positive and that below the sea level as negative.
∴∴ Height of point A from sea level = 5700 m
Depth of point B from sea level = -39600 m
Vertical distance between A and B = Distance of point A from sea level – Distance of point B from sea level
= 5700 – (-39600)
= 45300 m

Question 12:
On a day in Srinagar, the temperature at 6 p.m. was 1°C but at midnight that day, it dropped to −4°C. By how many degrees Celsius did the temperature fall?
ANSWER:
Initial temperature of Srinagar at 6 p.m. = 1°C
Final temperature of Srinagar at midnight = −4°C
Change in temperature = Final temperature – Initial temperature
= (−4 − 1)°C
= −5°C
So, the temperature has changed by −5°C.
The negative sign indicates that the temperature has fallen.
So, the temperature has fallen by 5°C.
