Answer:
The average number of yards lost for each time sacked as an integer is -12 yards.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's begin by defining what an integer is.
Integer = A number which is not a fraction and can either be negative or positive.
Let's now work out the average.
The average number of yards lost for each time sacked is given by:
Average = The total loss of yards/the number of times sacked
substituting the values we have:
Average = -84/7 = -12
The average number of yards lost for each time sacked as an integer is -12 yards.
