Question

On the first play of the game, the Wildcats gained 8 yd. What integer represents a gain of 8 yd?

Answer 1

From 0:

A positive number would mean you gained more numbers than lost numbers.
A negative number would mean you lost more numbers than gained numbers.

Therefore, positive is a gain.

So a gain of 8 yards would be positive 8, or just 8.

Hope this helps! :)

Answer 2

The integer 8 represents a gain of 8 yards.
