Answer:
[tex]20\frac{4}{5}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that a hockey goalie loses 2 3/5 rating points each time his team loses. His team loses 8 games in a row.
To find the number that will represent the change in goalie's ratings after losing 8 games we will multiply 8 by [tex]2\frac{3}{5}[/tex].
[tex]8*(2\frac{3}{5})[/tex]
Let us convert our mixed fraction into improper fraction.
[tex]8*\frac{13}{5}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{8*13}{5}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{104}{5}[/tex]
[tex]20\frac{4}{5}[/tex]
Therefore, [tex]20\frac{4}{5}[/tex] will represent the change in the goalie's rating points.
