Answer:

-150

Explanation:

We are given that Cheyenne is playing a board game.

Her scores at the start of her run=-275

Her score was at the end of her turn=-425

We have to find that what was change in the Cheyenne's score from the start of her turn to the end of her turn.

Final score of Cheyenne=-425

Initial score=-275

Change in the score=Final score-Initial score

=-425(-275)=425+275=-150

When a negative sign multiply with negative sign then the sign change into positive sign .

Therefore, the change in Cheyenne 's score from start of her turn to the end of her turn=-150
