For Problem 2-30 :
a. Draw expression mat in spiral - represent expression using numbers and symbol
b. Flip any tiles in the (subtraction/opposite/bottom) region to top and redraw in your spiral- write a new expression using only addition
c Identify how many terms are in your addition expression
d. Simplify your mat by making zeros pairs and draw your simplified mat, write a simplified expression to represent what is remaining on your mat.
b. Filp all tiles to top of mat using additive inverse and write new expression
a. Write a starting expression for each side of the mat (left and right)
b. Flip all tiles on each side of the mat to the top and rewrite new expressions
c. Simplify each side of the mat by combining like terms and making zero pairs and write simplified expressions
d. Remove what is the same from both mats and write final expressions/value and compare which one is greater
