If a football team lost 5 yards on each of 3 plays how could you use a number line to find the teams change in field position after the three plays?
There are two ways to consider this:You can either consider the position of the ball on the field as the distance from the offensive team's goal line (making the objective to get to the opponent's goal line of reaching 100), or as the distance from the opponent's goal line (making the objective to get to the opponent's goal line of reaching 0).In either case, every advance of the ball adds to the distance, going in the positive direction, and every loss subtracts from the distance, going in the negative distance.The loss of 5 yards on each play would be represented as 3 moves of negative 5, ie 3 moves of 5 to the left on a horizontal number line.The difference comes in where the goal lines are situated on the number line:In the first case (objective to reach 100):You goal line is at 0 and the opponent's goal line is at 100. The value of the position is the distance from your goal line; by subtracting this from 100 you can work out how far is required to go.In the second case (objective to reach 0)Your goal line is at -100 (effectively a loss of 100) and the opponent's goal line is at 0. The absolute value (that is the value ignoring the negative sign) of the position is the distance remaining to the opponent's goal line.The same can be considered for the distance to the next first down; the starting and objective values become 0 and 10 (in the first case), or -10 and 0 (in the second case).

How does the half the distance from the goal rule work?
If a distance penalty, enforced from a specific spot between the goal lines would place the ball more than half the distance to the offender's goal line, the penalty is half the distance from that spot to the goal line. This general rule supercedes any other general or specific rule with regard to enforcement of penalties. An exception would be intentional grounding, which is penalized at the spot of the foul if that spot is more than 10 yards behind the line of scrimmage.I got this information from The Chicago Tribune September 20, 2005 Column, Ask Jerry Markbreit.

A soccer field is also 80 yards wide.
