Question

Company is testing a robot.The robot is 12 inches tall and weigh 4 pounds.The employees of the company marked a grid on the floor and set the robot at(4,4). They programmed the robot to walk 4 yards east and 6 yards north each minute.What will the robot's location be after 7 minutes? The x coordinate and the y coordinate

Answer 1

Answer:

$P(2)=(32,46)$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Height of robot $h=12 inches$

Weight of robot $W=4$

Start position $P(1)=(4,4)$

Per minute distance $d=(4,6)$

Total time $T=7min$

Generally the distance traveled in 7 minutes $d_T$ is mathematically given by

 $d_T=d*T$

 $d_T=(4.6)*7$

 $d_T=(28,42)$

Generally the position of the robot after 7 minutes is  mathematically given by

 $P(2)=P(1)+d_T$

 $P(2)=(4,4)+(28,42)$

 $P(2)=(32,46)$

Therefore the position of the robot after 7 minutes is

 $P(2)=(32,46)$
