Answer:
The number [tex]-20\frac{4}{5}[/tex] or [tex]-\frac{104}{5}[/tex] represents the change in the goalie's rating points.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that hockey goalie loses [tex]2\frac{3}{5}[/tex] rating points each time his team loses.
If the team loses a game then the change in the goalie's rating points is defined as
[tex]-\frac{13}{5}[/tex]
If the team loses 8 games then the change in the goalie's rating points is defined as
[tex]-\frac{13}{5}\times 8[/tex]
[tex]-\frac{104}{5}[/tex]
It can be written as
[tex]-20\frac{4}{5}[/tex]
Therefore the number [tex]-20\frac{4}{5}[/tex] or [tex]-\frac{104}{5}[/tex] represents the change in the goalie's rating points.
