You're welcome.
To find the net loss or gain for the football team, we need to subtract the yards lost from the yards gained.
Yards lost: 6 yards
Yards gained: 8 yards
To find the net loss or gain, we subtract the yards lost from the yards gained:
Net loss or gain = Yards gained - Yards lost
Plugging in the values:
Net loss or gain = 8 yards - 6 yards
Simplifying the equation, we get:
Net loss or gain = 2 yards
Therefore, the net loss or gain for the football team is 2 yards.
