Answer: he is at the 15 yard line

Step-by-step explanation: once he gains 40 yards he is at the 10 yard line then once he goes back 5 he is at the 15 yard line which is in between the 20 and ten

Lil Girl · Answer 2

He would be at the 15 yard line.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 40 yard gain would bring him to the 10 yard line (he caught it at the 50 yard line, so 50 - 40 = 10), but the 5 yards lost due to the tackle and push back would bring him to the 15 yard line (10 + 5 = 15).
