In golf, shooting par is scored as a 0. A score of 2 below par on a hole in golf is called an eagle. Jacob’s friend Michelle scored an eagle on each of her first five holes. Explain how you would use addition to find the product of –2 and 5 using the integer tiles and the number line. Please help I need this done quick or I get 0 on my test.

With integer tiles, you would add 5 groups of negative 2 tiles or remove 2 groups of 5 positive tiles. On the number line, you would bounce by 5 to the left 2 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

u... i got the question???

If you want to use integer tiles to find the product of 2(-5), think of it as you having 2 groups of 5 negative tiles, that is

-1 -1

-1 -1

-1 -1

-1 -1

-1 -1

Think of it as you having each of the -1 inside it's distinct tile. Now adding up these tiles you have -10.

Therefore 2(-5) is -10 using integer tiles.

If we are to use the number line, first draw your number line, then think of it as jumping twice while each jump is -5 big.

So the first jump from 0 will land on -5 and the second jump will land on -10 and that is the required answer using the number line.
