Theresa and Mark are playing cards. Each card is -50 points.

A) How many points does There have if she has 5 cards?

B) How many points does Mark have if he has 8 cards?

C) Who has more points?

Respuesta :

*Since each card is worth -50 points, you need to remember that a positive times a negative integer gives you a negative integer.*

Part A) Theresa has 5 cards so: 5 x -50 = -250

Theresa has -250 points.

Part B) Mark has 8 cards so: 8 x -50 = -400

Mark has -400 points.

Part C) Theresa has more points because -250 is closer to 0 on a number line.
