The calculated value of the possible location of S is -11

How to determine the possibble location of S

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

RS = 5

Also, we have

R = -16

Using the above as a guide, we have the following:

S = R + 5

Substitute the known values into the equation

S = -16 + 5

Evaluate

S = -11

Hence, the possibble location of S is -11
