What model can you use to represent −30÷−6?(1 point)
Responses
(−6)+(−6)+(−6)+(−6)+(−6)=5(−6)=−30
left parenthesis negative 6 right parenthesis plus left parenthesis negative 6 right parenthesis plus left parenthesis negative 6 right parenthesis plus left parenthesis negative 6 right parenthesis plus left parenthesis negative 6 right parenthesis plus left parenthesis negative 6 right parenthesis equals 5 left parenthesis negative 6 right parenthesis equals negative 30
(−5)+(−5)+(−5)+(−5)+(−5)+(−5)=6(−5)=−30
negative 5 plus negative 5 plus negative 5 plus negative 5 plus negative 5 plus negative 5 equals 6 left parenthesis negative 5 right parenthesis equals negative 30
30−6−6−6−6−6=30−5(6)
30 minus 6 minus 6 minus 6 minus 6 minus 6 equals 30 minus 5 left parenthesis 6 right parenthesis
−30−(−6)−(−6)−(−6)−(−6)−(−6)=−30−5(−6)=0

If Elaine's answer of -14 is correct, then the final count of the two-color counters should be -14. We can count the total number of counters in the model and observe if it matches -14.
If the result is indeed -14, it confirms that Elaine's answer is correct. However, if the count of the counters does not match -14, then Elaine's answer is incorrect.
If Elaine's answer of -14 is correct, then the final count of the two-color counters should be -14. We can count the total number of counters in the model and observe if it matches -14.
In the two-color counter model, each red counter represents a negative value and each blue counter represents a positive value. Adding or removing blue counters represents increasing or decreasing the overall value, while adding or removing red counters represents decreasing or increasing the overall value.
By counting the total number of counters in the model and evaluating their colors, we can determine the final result. If the count of red and blue counters matches -14, then Elaine's answer is correct. However, if the count does not match -14, then Elaine's answer is incorrect and further calculation or double-checking is needed.
