To find the total yardage, you need to add up the gains and subtract the losses. In this case, the team gains 7 yards on the first pass, loses 22 yards on the second pass, and gains 33 yards on the third pass.
To calculate the total yardage, you can add the gains and subtract the losses as follows:
Total yardage = (7 + 33) - 22
Adding the gains (7 + 33) gives you:
Total yardage = 40 - 22
Subtracting the loss of 22 yards gives you:
Total yardage = 18
Therefore, the total yardage gained by the football team is 18 yards.
