you are right on the first 2 but like with any foul going to the end zone it will be half the distance. R's ball 1st and 10 at the 7.5... [/B]
Sorry, but you're incorrect. At least for NFHS.

10-1-5
Enforcement of a penalty cannot take the ball more than half the distande from the enforcement spot to the offending team's goal line. If the prescribed penalty is greater than this, the ball is placed halfway from the spot of the enforcement to the goal line.

K is the offending team, and the ball is being moved towards R's goal line. Half the distance does not apply.
