A football team gained 4 yards in one play. In the next play, the team lost 6 yards. After this, what is the total amount of yards gained? Show your work.
To find the total amount of yards gained, we need to add the yardage gained in the first play and subtract the yardage lost in the second play.
First, we add the 4 yards gained in the first play:
4 + 0 = 4 yards gained
Then, we subtract the 6 yards lost in the second play:
4 - 6 = -2 yards gained
Since the team lost 2 yards, the total amount of yards gained is -2 yards.
