Answer 1

To solve the question you would need to add 10.75, 16.4, and 8.5 to find the answer, which is 35.65. 

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

35.65 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the brown hose is 10.75 feet long, the green hose is 16.4 feet long, and the black hose is 8.5 feet long. We are asked to find the distance that one long hose can reach.

The length of one long hose will be equal to sum of distances of each hose.

$\text{The length of one long hose}=10.75\text{ ft}+16.4\text{ ft}+8.5\text{ ft}$

$\text{The length of one long hose}=35.65\text{ ft}$

Therefore, the one long hose can reach 35.65 feet.
