I’m trying to help my sister out can you help!! On its first play of the game, a football team gained 6 yards. On its next
team lost 2 yards and then gained 7 yards. Use integers to describe these three plays.
What integer represents a play in which the team neither gains yards nor loses yards?
A play that gains yards would be represented by a
integer
A play that loses yards would be represented by a
integer.
On the first play, the team gained
yards.
A gain of 6 yards is represented by the integer
On the second play, the team lost
yards.
A loss of 2 yards is represented by the integer
On the third play, the team gained
yards.
A gain of 7 yards is represented by the integer
The three plays can be described by the integers
and

It shows your screenshot, but I've filled in the blanks with the answers.

Explanation:

Positive integers represent yards that the team gains. On the opposite side, negative integers represent yards the team loses.

For example, if a team gains 3 yards, then we write that as +3 or simply 3. If a team loses 5 yards, then we write -5. Adding 3 to -5 gets us 3+(-5) = -2 showing the overall result is a loss of 2 yards at the end of the second down.

As another example, if a team gains 7 yards on first down, but then loses those 7 yards on second down, then they gained overall 7+(-7) = 0 yards overall. They haven't gone anywhere at the end of the second down.

We could do things the other way around like this. Suppose the team loses 8 yards on first down, but has better luck on second down to gain 8 yards. They get back to the original line of scrimmage (back to the starting point) and we can say -8+8 = 0. The team hasn't gone anywhere, but it could be worse and they could be dealing with a loss of yardage.

It might help to set up a vertical number line to help try to visualize negative numbers. Each gain means you go upward. Each loss means you go downward. In a sense, it's like a skyscraper and each integer represents floors of the building. Negative integers are basement floors. Zero is the ground level.
