Answer:

+73 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have the first two quarters, we can simply work out the yardage for each game and add them together to get the total.

42-9 = 33 (first game)

58-18 = 40 (second game)

Therefore his total yardage was +73.

42-9-18+58 = 73.

Hope this helped!
