Answer 1

In golf:

`\begin{gathered} \text{ par corresponds to 0 on the number line} \\ \text{ under par corresponds to negative numbers on the number line} \\ \text{over par corresponds to positive numbers on the number line} \end{gathered}`

Hence, in this case,

`\begin{gathered} 7\text{ over par corresponds to +7 on the number line} \\ 1\text{ under par corresponds to -1 on the number line} \\ 4\text{ over par corresponds to +4 on the number line} \end{gathered}`

Hence, the value of an expression that gives Cameron's score for 4 holes of golf is given by

`7-1+4-1=6+4-1=10-1=9`

The expression is : 7 - 1 + 4 - 1

Camerons's score is: 9
