    - 16 loss per play

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If the team lost 48 yards,

    To represent the loss by a negative number means to add a negative sign to the loss number

    That is,

    Add negative to 48

    Which is

    -48

    Average loss per play = number of yards loss / number of plays

    = - 48/3

    = - 16

    -16 yards lost per play
