On the first play of a game, a running back in 7 yards. On the next play, he lost 19 yards. Write an addition expression to describe the situation m. Then find the change in teared in the two plays and explain its meaning
To write an addition expression to describe the situation, we can add the gain of 7 yards on the first play and the loss of 19 yards on the next play.
The addition expression is: 7 + (-19)
To find the change in yardage between the two plays, we need to subtract the initial yardage from the final yardage.
The initial yardage was 7 yards, and the final yardage after the two plays is -12 yards. So, the change in yardage is:
Final yardage - Initial yardage = -12 - 7 = -19 yards.
The change in yardage is -19 yards, which means that the running back lost a total of 19 yards between the two plays.
It would help if you proofread your questions before you posted them, e.g., "a running back in 7 yards".
