Respuesta :

The integer expression $6 shows their loss.

This represents that they spent $6 more than the amount they actually earned.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount spent on soap = $12

The spent on sponges and rags = $19

So, the total amount spent by cheerleader  

= Amount spent on (Soap + Buckets/ Sponges)  = $12 + $19 = $31

So, they total spent  is $31 before car washing.

Now, the amount they earned from car washing  = $25

Here, as we can say:  

$31  > $25

⇒ The amount spent  is more than  the amount earned.

So, there is loss in the given activity.

Loss = Amount spent - Amount earned  

        = $31 - $25 = $6

So, the integer expression $6 shows their loss.

This represents that they spent $6 more than the amount they actually earned.
