[SOLVED] How to move a tarbal from home directory into usr/local/src

How might I go about moving a tarball from my home directory into the usr/local/src directory via the command line? I need to get a tarball there and I can't just copy paste it but I do have sudo permissions. So is there a way I can move it with sudo via the terminal?

with super user permissions assume root or sudo
sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/src
sudo mv tarball /usr/local/src/
