Celsius
7. A set of integers is arranged in increasing order: -8, -6, x, 1, 5. What is a possible value for the integer represented
by 'x'?
A. -10
B. 6
C. -5
D. 8
8. Two integers, a and b, are compared. It is known that a < b. Which of the following statements must also be true?
A. a is positive and b is negative.
B. a is negative and b is positive.
C. b is located to the right of a on a number line.
D. a is located to the right of b on a number line.
9. A student claims that -10 is greater than -5 because 10 is greater than 5. Is the student's reasoning correct? Explain
why or why not.
A. Yes, the student is correct because the same rules of comparison apply to both positive and negative integers.
B. No, the student is incorrect. In the realm of negative integers, values further away from zero are smaller. -10 is
further to the left on the number line than -5, making it smaller.
C. It depends on the context of the situation being represented by the integers.
D. The student is partially correct, but further clarification is needed.
10. Which representation is more suitable for comparing the relative positions of -2, 0, and 3: a number line or a bar
graph? Justify your choice.
A. A bar graph, as it effectively shows the magnitudes of the numbers.
B. A number line, as it clearly displays the order and relative positions of the integers.
C. Both representations are equally suitable.
D. Neither representation is suitable for this purpose.
11. What is an integer?
A. Any whole number.
B. A number that can be written as a fraction.
C. A number that includes natural numbers, their opposites, and zero.
D. A number that is always positive.
12. When multiplying two integers with the same sign, what is the sign of the product?
A. Negative
B. Positive
C. Zero
D. It depends on the magnitude of the numbers.
13. What is the result of dividing zero by any non-zero integer?
A. Undefined
B. The same non-zero integer.
C. Zero
D. One.
14. What is the rule for adding two integers with different signs?
A. Add their absolute values and keep the sign of the larger integer.
B. Subtract their absolute values and keep the sign of the larger integer.
C. Add their absolute values and keep the sign of the smaller integer.
D. Subtract their absolute values and keep the sign of the smaller integer.
15. When using integer chips, what does a pair of one yellow chip and one red chip represent?
A. +1
B. -1
C. 0
D. It depends on the value assigned to each colour.

B. The process of selecting a subset of a population for study.
C. The process of analysing data to draw conclusions.
D. The process of organising data into charts and graphs.
18. Why is it important to choose an appropriate sampling technique?
A. To ensure that the sample is representative of the population.
B. To make data collection easier and faster.
C. To guarantee that the results of the study are accurate.
D. To avoid the need for statistical analysis.
