Question

For the first part of the obstacle course, Helena needs to sprint as fast as she can to Checkpoint A,

which is 5
units north of her starting point.

Which mapping statement correctly describes how she gets from the starting point (0,0)
to Checkpoint A?
A) (x,y)↦(x+5,y)

B) (x,y)↦(x−5,y+5)

C) (x,y)↦(x,y+5)

D) (x,y)↦(x+5,y+5)

Answer 1

The direction of the north is taken as positive on the x-axis that is (x + 5, y). Then the correct option is B.

Explanation:

Answer 2

The correct option is B.

Explanation:

The direction of the north is taken as positive on the x-axis that is (x + 5, y). Then the correct option is B.

What is coordinate geometry?

Coordinate geometry is the study of geometry using the points in space. Using this, it is possible to find the distance between the points, the dividing line is m:n ratio, finding the mid-point of the line, etc.

For the first part of the obstacle course.

Helena needs to sprint as fast as she can to Checkpoint A, which is 5 units north of her starting point.

Then the coordinate point will be

Let the direction of the north is taken as positive on the x-axis. Then we have

(x, y) → (x + 5, y)
