A football team gained 4 yards on their first play but lost 9 yards on the second play

Lol same

Mine is the opposite. They lost 4 yards and gained 13. :()

Lolly pops taste good. LIKE IF YOU AGREE. xD

To find the result of these two plays, we need to add the yards gained in the first play and the yards lost in the second play.

The team gained 4 yards on the first play, so we add 4. Then, they lost 9 yards on the second play, so we subtract 9.

4 + (-9) simplifies to -5.

Therefore, the result of these two plays is -5.

So, the correct answer choice is -5.
