Let

A--------> the coordinates in a Cartesian Plane of Frostburg Mall

B--------> the coordinates in a Cartesian Plane of Sojourner Truth Park

C--------> the coordinates in a Cartesian Plane of City Center (0,0)

Step

Find the coordinates of Frostburg Mall (point A)

we know that

The mall is miles west and miles south of the City Center

so

Point A is equal to

Step

Find the coordinates of Sojourner Truth Park (point B)
