Kayla and mario are playing with a football at the park on a windy day. mark throws the football straight up in the air, and a gust of wind blows it 10 feet west 4 feet south of mark. if (x/y) represents the orginal location of the football, write a matrix that represents the location of the translated ball. a. |x-10 y-4|b. |x+10| |y-4|c. |x-10| |y-4|d. |x+10 y-4|

The correct answer is a. |x-10 y-4|.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the initial position where the football is thrown up the air be x and y.

After the ball is thrown up the air it moves 10 feet west 4 feet south because of the gust of wind.

Therefore the change in x is by 10 feet west and is at the point x - 10 and the change in y is by 4 feet south and is at the point y - 4.

Thus the matrix representing the position of the football is |x-10 y-4|.
