Sally and her friends made up a game with points. You can either win or lose up to ten points on each round of the game. After the first round, Sally's team had 2 points. In the second round they lost 6 points. How many points was Sally's team down by after the second round? The number line will help you picture the problem.

They were down by 4 points after the second round

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the number of points in which Sally’s team was down by after the second round

Mathematically, that will be the point they had in the first round minus the number of points they lost in the second round

That would be 2-6 = -4

This means that they were down by 4 points after the second round
