Answer: -8 points
Explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Irma is just learning to play the Happy Fairies video game and that in the game, players gain and lose points based on how well they take care of the fairies in their fairy gardens.
We are told that Irma had a total of –5 points, then, her fairy house fell over in the wind and she got –3 points.
Her total points now will be the addition of -5 and -3. This will be:
= -5 + (-3)
= -5 - 3
= -8
Note that minus multiplied by plus is minus.
