To convert a fraction to a decimal, divide the numerator by the denominator (divide the top by the bottom)
(0,-9) is the y intercept
A number without denominator such is equal to number with denominator 1.
So, 24 is equal to 24/1
5/8 x 24
= 5/8 x 24/1
= (5x24) / (8x1)
= 120/8
= 15

Please don't get mad at me if their are incorrect but i'm sure they are right!
Basically, you just have to find the length of the rectangle that is 27 x 78 feet.
The equation for the diagonal:
d = sqrt(l^2+w^2)
l = 27
w = 78
plug them in and solve
d = sqrt ( (27^2) + (78^2) )
d = sqrt ( 729 + 6084 )
d = sqrt ( 6813 )
d <span>≈ 82.5
The ball traveled approximately 82.5 feet from one corner of the rectangular 27 x 78 foot field, diagonally to the other side.
Hope this helps</span>
