Full question:
In a basketball game, Elena scores twice as many points as Tyler. Tyler scores four points fewer than Noah, and Noah scores three times as many points as Mai. If Mai scores 5 points, how many points did Elena score? Explain your reasoning
Answer and explanation:
We start from known to unknown. We know that Mai scored 5 points and so we work from here.
Since Mai scored 5 points and Noah scored three times as many points then Noah's score = 3×5= 15 points
Since Tyler scored four points less than Noah, Noah's score= 15-4= 11 points
Finally Elena's score is twice that of Tyler hence Elena's score =2×11= 22 points

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
35.65 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Melanie connected a brown garden hose , a green garden hose and a black garden hose to make one long hose
The brown hose is 10.75 feet
The green hose is 16.4 feet
The black hose is 8.5 feet
Therefore the farthest distance that the one hose can reach can be calculated as follows
= 10.75 + 16.4 + 8.5
= 35.65 feet
Hence the farthest distance that one hose can reach is 35.65 feet
8y - 11y + 6
Combine like terms
-3y + 6 is the simplified answer.
