Answer
Answer:
Part A:
(There is no way to select from the given options in text - based response, but the correct number - line would have an arrow starting at 0 and going to 20 (to represent the initial 20 - point gain), then an arrow from 20 going left 10 units (to represent the 10 - point loss), and then another arrow from the new position going left 25 units.)
Part B:
- 5
Explanation:
Step1: Initial score
Niki starts with 20 points.
Step2: First loss
She loses 10 points. So the score becomes $20 - 10=10$ points.
Step3: Second loss
She loses an additional 25 points. So the final score is $10-25=- 5$ points.
