D
(i) All the negative integers are less than 0.
(ii) Multiplicative identity for integers is same as that of whole numbers i.e., 1.
(iii) Absolute value of a non-negativeintegeris equal to the integer itself and the absolute value of a negative integer is always greater than the integer.
E.g. absolute value of 6 is 6; absolute value of -6 is 6.

The maximum temperature is 33C.
Question 44. After walking 20km towards North Ram starts walking towards South and walks 45km. How far is Ram now from the starting point? What is the total distance travelled by Ram?  [3 MARKS]
 Discuss Question

:
Distance and direction: 2 Marks
Total Distance: 1 Mark
Distance travelled by Ram in the north direction = 20km
Distance travelled in the south direction = 45km
Ram's distance from theinitial point = (45 - 20 ) = 25km
Ram is 25km in the south direction from his starting point.
The total distance travelled by Ram = 20 + 45 = 65km
Question 45. A rock climber climbs a hill of height 200m at the rate of 3 m/s. If he starts climbing from 20m above the ground, then find the following : 
(i) What is the total distance he needs to trek to climb to the top of the hill?
(ii) What is the time taken by him to reach the hilltop?
(iii) If he covered half of the distance at 3 m/s and remaining distance at 2 m/s, find the total time taken by him to climb the hill.  [3 MARKS]

Each question: 1 Mark
Rate at which climber climbs the hill = 3 m/s
Total distance to be climbed by the climber = 200m - 20m = 180m

The time required by the climber to reach the top of the hill is
=1803
= 60 seconds
Hence, the climber will climb the hill in 60 seconds.
It is given that he covered half of the distance at 3 m/s and the remaining half at 2 m/s.
Total distance to be covered = 180m
Distance covered with speed3 m/s = 1802
= 90m
Distance covered with speed 2 m/s
= 180-90 = 90m
Time taken to cover the first 90m = 903
= 30 seconds
Time taken to cover the last 90m =902
= 45 seconds
The total time taken to climb to the top of the hill = 30 + 45 = 75 seconds
Question 46. In a quiz, team A scored - 40, 10, 0 and team B scored 20, 0, - 40 in three successive rounds, team C scored 30,30,20 and team D scored 80, -20, 10.
(i) Which team scored the highest?
(ii) Which team scored the lowest?
(ii) What is the difference between the teams which scored the highest and the team which scored lowest?
(iii) Can we say that we can add integers in any order?

Each question - 1 Mark
Team A - 40, 10, 0.
Total score = - 40 + 10 + 0 = - 30
Team B - 20, 0,- 40.
Total score = 20 + 0 +(- 40) = - 20
Team C - 30, 30, 20
Total score = 30 + 30 + 20 = 80
Team D - 80, -20, 10
Total score = 80 - 20 + 10 = 90
(i) So, team D scored the highest = 90
(ii) Team A scored the lowest =-30
(iii) The difference between the highest scorer and the lowest scorer
= 90 - (-30) = 90 + 30 = 120
(iv)Yes, we can add integers in any order. We had observed that the scores obtained by both teams in successive rounds were numerically equal but different in order. Yet, the total score of both teams was equal. It is the associative property of addition of integers.
Question 47. Define additive identity and additive inverse. Give an example.  
[2 MARKS]

:
Definition: 1 Mark
Example: 1 Mark
When we add zero to any whole number, we will get the same whole number as result. Hence, zero is known as additive identity.
For example, 5 + 0 = 0, here 0 is the additive identity
The additive inverse of a number is the number that when added, yields zero. To find the additive inverse of a number, we multiply the given number by -1.
For example, if we want to find the additive inverse of the number 5 we multiply it by -1.
5×(1)=(5)
So, -5 is the additive inverse of the number 5.

Question 48. In how many ways can -12 be written as a product of two integers? [2 MARKS]
 Discuss Question

:
Writing the factors: 1 Mark
Answer: 1 Mark
Here, -12 can be written as (1×12), (2×6), (3×4), (4×3), (6×2) and (12×1).
So, -12 can be written in 6 ways as a product of two integers.
Question 49. A bird is flying at a height of 1200 m from the ground. A hunter shot the bird standing on a hill of height 600m. If the height from which he fired is 1 meter above the hill, find the distance travelled by the bullet to reach the bird? He missed in the first attempt and fired again but by then the bird was 1300 m from the ground. Find the distance travelled by the bullet in the second attempt.  
[4 MARKS]
 Discuss Question

:
First attempt: 2 Marks
Second Attempt: 2 Marks
Distance of the bird from the ground surface in the first attempt = 1200m
Distance of the hunter from the ground surface = 600m
Distance of the bird from the hunter
= 1200m - 600m = 600m

But, when the hunter stands, the height of the gun from ground = 600 + 1 = 601m
So, distance traveled by bullet in the first attempt= 1200 - 601= 599m
Distance of the bird from the ground surface in the secondattempt = 1300m

Distance traveled by the bullet inthe second attempt= 1300 - 601 = 699m
Question 50. Find the product, using suitable properties:
(a) 625 × (− 35) + (− 625) × 65 
(b) (− 17) × (− 29)

a)625× (−35) + (−625)× 65
= 625× [(−35) + (−65)]
( (a× b) + (a× c) = a× (b + c))

b)(−17)× (−29)
= (−17)× [−30 + 1]
= [(−17)× (−30)] + [(−17) × 1]
( a× (b + c) = (a× b) + (a× c)
= (510) + (−17) = 493
