What number represents the amount of points Dana has after her first 5 rolls?

  • Start point of game = 0 (Given)
  • If she rolls an even number she loses 75 points (Given)
  • We need to find the number that represents the points dana has after five rolls

So as She rolls an even number she loses 75 points = -75
