Answer:
Think of it as a small number and a large number. If the large number is being divided by a small number, of course that would be larger than the small number being divided by the large number.
Going south means you're going in the negative direction along the y axis
Going 4 yards south would be represented as -4 on the y axis number line (this is the vertical number line)
-7y-4x=17y-2x=53
-4x=24y-2x=53
-2x=24y=53
24y+2x=53
You would have to solve one at a time.
y=53/24
y=2.21
x=53/2
x=26.5
The answer is 154 feet. just took the quiz. sorry this is later.
