Suppose you start at the origin, move along the x-axis a distance of 7 units in the positive direction, and then move downward along the z-axis a distance of 9 units. What are the coordinates of your position

The coordinates of the new position are

(x, y, z) = (7, 0, -9)

Step-by-step explanation:

So assuming a 3D plane x, y, z

The starting point is the origin that is

(x, y, z) = (0, 0, 0)

Move a distance of 7 units along the positive x-axis

(x, y, z) = (7, 0, 0)

Then move a distance of 9 units downwards along the z-axis

downward = negative and upward = positive

(x, y, z) = (7, 0, -9)

Therefore, the coordinates of the new position are

(x, y, z) = (7, 0, -9)

Refer to the attached plot where the above coordinates are plotted on a 3D surface using an online 3D plotter.

Each small box corresponds to 1 unit.

dalila is incorrect. the whisker on the left is very long, going all the way out to 5. the whisker goes from 5 to 30, so it has a spread of 25. the rest of the box plot values are closer together, so 5 is an outlier
