Question

Using the integer tiles interactive, what steps do you need to do to evaluate the following expression? Select two options.

Expression : -5-2

A. Drag 5 sets of -2 tiles to the window.
B. Drag zero pairs to the window.
C. Remove the 5 groups of -2 tiles
D. Remove 5 negative tiles from the window.

Answer 1

To evaluate the expression -5 - 2 using the integer tiles interactive, drag 5 sets of -2 tiles to the window, drag zero pairs to cancel out the -2, remove the 5 groups of -2 tiles, and finally remove 5 negative tiles from the window to get the final answer of -7.

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate the expression -5 - 2 using the integer tiles interactive, you need to follow these steps:

1. Drag 5 sets of -2 tiles to the window. This represents -5.
2. Drag zero pairs to the window. This cancels out the -2, leaving only -5.
3. Remove the 5 groups of -2 tiles. You are left with -5 - 2.
4. Finally, remove 5 negative tiles from the window. You are left with -7.
