The total score of Rayna's hand is described below in details.

Step-by-step explanation:

Start at 0. Combining a positive integer is a simplistic addition. Add 3 to get 3.

Combining a negative integer is like deducting : 3 + (-5) = 3 - 5 = -2.

Add 9, using 9 steps ahead, on the number line, to get 7.

Add -6, by deducting 6, to get 1.

Rayna's total composition is 1.

As for part 2, Rayna obtaining two more cards, which doesn't change his final record ...

Unless he got 2 zeroes, or he got pair cards with different symbols but similar magnitudes, such as 1 and -1.

The sign of a number is whether it is negative or positive. The magnitude (total value) of a number is how far that amount is from zero. The magnitude of a product is never negative.

The 2 cards do not change Rayna's point total, because their influences eliminate each other out. For instance, a 1 would move him one move ahead, on the number line, and a -1 would produce him one move behind, on the number line.

the first one, all those points on the line just make a strait line.
