Answer 1

Question Correction

A group of neighbors are constructing a community garden that is 80 meters wide and 40 meters long. The top two vertices are plotted below at (10, 70) and (90, 70). What are the coordinates for the bottom two vertices of the garden?

Answer:

(10,30) and (90,30)

Step-by-step explanation:

The community garden is 80 m wide and 40 m long.

The top two vertex are plotted at: (10, 70) and (90, 70).

Horizontal Distance =90-10=80

This serves as the Width of the garden.

Since the length is 40m, the bottom two vertex can be derived by the transformation: (x,y-40).

(x,y-40)-->(10, 70)=(10,30); and

(x,y-40)-->(90, 70)=(90,30)

The coordinates for the two bottom vertices are (10,30) and (90,30).
