CCGPS Math 6th Grade Unit 7 Study Guide—Rational Explorations: Numbers and their Opposites.
MCC6.NS.5 Understand that positive and negative numbers are used together to describe quantities having
opposite directions or values (e.g., temperature above/below zero, elevation above/below sea level, debits/credits,
positive/negative electric charge); use positive and negative numbers to represent quantities in real-world
contexts, explaining the meaning of 0 in each situation.
3. A pay cut of $3,500. 4. A person who has paid off all of his/her debts
MCC6.NS.6 Understand a rational number as a point on the number line. Extend number line diagrams and
coordinate axes familiar from previous grades to represent points on the line and in the plane with negative number
coordinates.
-1 1
MCC6.NS.6a Recognize opposite signs of numbers as indicating locations on opposite sides of 0 on the number line;
recognize that the opposite of the opposite of a number is the number itself, e.g., –(–3) = 3, and that 0 is its own
opposite.\
11. What is another way to write –(–21)?
12. On the vertical number line, plot 10 and it’s opposite. What is the distance of each point from zero? What is
the distance between 10 and its’ opposite?
MCC6.NS.6b Understand signs of numbers in ordered pairs as indicating locations in quadrants of the coordinate
plane; recognize that when two ordered pairs differ only by signs, the locations of the points are related by
reflections across one or both axes.
13. A point located at coordinate (3, -6) was reflected across the x-axis. In which quadrant is the reflected point?
14. Do the locations of any of the animals on the coordinate grid below share the same y-coordinate? Why or Why
not?
15. Which places within the middle school are located in quadrant II?
MCC6.NS.6c Find and position integers and other rational numbers on a horizontal or vertical number line diagram;
find and position pairs of integers and other rational numbers on a coordinate plane.

18. What are the coordinates of the pointS on the coordinate plane below?
Graph the following on the number line to find their absolute value (distance from 0).
3 15 4 -4 -17 -15 0 -6
MCC6.NS.7b Write, interpret, and explain statements of order for rational numbers in real-world contexts.
40. The lowest point in the Potomac River is 1 foot above sea level. The lowest point in the
Colorado River is 70 feet above sea level. The lowest point in the Delaware River is sea
level. Write the names of these three rivers in order from the lowest to the highest
elevation.
41. The lowest recorded temperature in Alabama was 27F below zero. In Florida, the lowest
recorded temperature was 2F below zero. The lowest temperature ever recorded in
Hawaii was 12F above zero. Write the names of these three states in order from the
highest to the lowest recorded temperatures.

Which lists the students in order from the greatest distance from school to the least
distance?
a) Katherine, Rudy, Tyler, Jose
b) Katherine, Jose, Rudy, Tyler
c) Tyler, Rudy, Jose, Katherine
d) Rudy, Tyler, Katherine, Jose
43. Fred has a bank account balance of -$45.30. Brandon has a bank account balance of -$55.
Which of the following is true?
a) Fred’s debt is less than Brandon’s.
b) Brandon’s debt is less than Fred’s.
c) Fred and Brandon have the same debt.
d) Neither Fred nor Brandon have debt.
MCC6.NS.7c Understand the absolute value of a rational number as its distance from 0 on the number line;
interpret absolute value as magnitude for a positive or negative quantity in a real-world situation.
44. A scuba diver is 30 feet below sea level while a seaplane is 40 feet above sea level. How far apart above the
scuba diver is the seaplane?
45. Toliver’s checking account has a balance of less than -$200. Which statement is true about how much Toliver
owes the bank?
a) Toliver owes exactly $200.
b) Toliver owes exactly -$200.
c) Toliver owes less than $200.
d) Toliver owes more than $200.
MCC6.NS.7d Distinguish comparisons of absolute value from statements about order.
Now you try! Put these in order from LEAST to GREATEST
46. 9, |-5|, 12, |-10| _____, _____, _____, _____
47. |-18|, -5, |10|, |-12|5 _____, _____, _____, _____, ____
MCC6.NS.6b Understand signs of numbers in ordered pairs as indicating locations in quadrants of the coordinate
plane; recognize that when two ordered pairs differ only by signs, the locations of the points are related by
reflections across one or both axes.
48) Reflect rectangle ABCD across the x-axis. 49) Reflect Δ ABC across the y-axis.
MCC6.NS.6c Find and position integers and other rational numbers on a horizontal or vertical number line diagram;
find and position pairs of integers and other rational numbers on a coordinate plane.
50.
Write the ordered pair for each point in the
plane to the left. For instance, C = (-4,3).
D =_______________ V = ________________
E = ______________ W =________________
F = ______________ X = ________________
I = _______________ Y = ________________
K =_______________ Z = _________________
MCC6.NS.8 Solve real-world and mathematical problems by graphing points in all four quadrants of the coordinate
plane. Include use of coordinates and absolute value to find distances between points with the same first
coordinate or the same second coordinate.
51) Plot each character’s home on the graph. Connect them in the order they are
listed (also connect B & D). Label them B, Y, S, and D, as noted above.
52) What polygon was made? _________________________
BY = _________ YS = _________
SD = _________ DB = _________
