In golf shooting par is scored as a 0. A score of 2 below par is called an eagle. Jacobs 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

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the integer tiles :

Drawing 2 tiles each time an eagle is obtained, this gives:

-2 + - 2 + - 2 + - 2 + - 2 = - 10

Using the number line,

Each unit on the number line = - 2

Any time an eagle scored ; take a unit step to the left.

This give ls a unit step 5 times

-2 + - 2 + - 2 + - 2 + - 2 = - 10

Using direct multiplication :

-2 * 5 = - 10 as it means - 2 in 5 places ; similarly, scoring - 2 five times will give - 10

Also note :

Either - 2 * 5 or - 5 * 2 is the same due to commutativity property of multiplication
