You can use concrete objects, such as counters, to find the total yardage.
Use negative integers to represent the yards lost on each play.

The model shows that adding a negatÿe
number to another negative number results
in a negative sum.

The addends have different signs.

Remove all zero pairs.
There are more negative counters

Find the number of counters remaining.
The model shows that the sum

has the same sign as the greater
number of counters.
There areI
iÿ- ! inegative counters remaining.
So, -4 + 2 = iÿh- i.
