Nikki is playing a trivia game. at the end of the first round she has 8 points. during the second round she loses 16 points . which expressions represent the total number of points nikki has at the end of the second round?

8 - 16 = p

Step-by-step explanation:

P stands for the total amount of points after the second round. She earned 8 points, so the 8 is positive. Then, she lost 16 points. 16 is taken away from 8.

So, our equation is:

8 - 16 = p

Since the question asks for a equation, this should be your answer.

If you need the answer for how many total points, P = -8.

8 - 16 = -8
