Sagot :

The difference is negative seven I believe

Answer:

-7 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Might help to line everything up

First play: gained 8 yards (+8)

Second play: lost 6 yards (-6)

Third play: gained 3 yards (+3)

Fourth play: lost 12 yards (-12)

Then put it all together and solve (I'll solve left to right):

(8-6)+3-12

(2+3)-12

5-12

-7

The final change in yardage was -7 yards
