Using cartesian coordinates concepts such as midpoint and distance between two points, it is found that:
- The location point of the Ferris wheel is (15,24).
- They need to walk 20 units.
- The coordinates of the hotdog stand are (23,8).
- Water ride is at point (3,8).
- Roller coaster is at point (27,40).
- The Ferris wheel is at the midpoint of the water ride and the roller coaster, thus it's coordinates are the <u>mean of their coordinates.</u>
The location point of the Ferris wheel is (15,24).
The distance between two points, and
is given by:
Here, Tiffany and her sister are at (15,24) while their parents are at (3,8). Thus, their distance is:
They need to walk 20 units.
- Hotdog stand is directly east of the water ride, thus, it has the <u>same y-coordinate, while the x-coordinate is increased</u>.
- The distance is of 20 units, thus:
The coordinates of the hotdog stand are (23,8).
