Answer:
team loss after three games is 5.
Explanation:
we will use positive sign for gain and negative sign for loss.
Given
Jim's team gained 7 yards on the first play
gain of yards = +7
lost 2 yards on the second play
loss of yards = -2
lost 10 yards on the third play
loss of yards = -10
Total yards gain or lost by Jim's team = +7 + (- 2) + ( - 10)
Total yards gain or lost by Jim's team = +7 -2 -10 = -5
sine sign is negative, it means there is loss and the net loss is 7 yards.
Thus, team loss after three games is 5.
