Respuesta :

The answers is going to be C

Answer:

D:78+5+7

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that in a football game , a running back ran for -7 and -5 yards on his two runs.

His total yardage for the whole game=78 yards

We have to find that which expression shows how many yards the running back had before those two runs.

Total yardage=78 yards

Sum of two runs=-7-5

Now, number of yards had before  two runs is given by

[tex]78-(-7-5)=78+7+5[/tex]

Hence, the expression which shows number of yards the running back had before two given runs

D:[tex]78+7+5[/tex]

Answer:D:78+5+7
