Socks are located 7 units above the x-axis on the y-axis, shoes are located 5 units above x-axis and 2 units right to the y-axis, towels are located 2 units above x-axis and 5 units right to y-axis, and dishes located at 7 units right to y-axis on the x-axis.

Mrs. Graf bought items at the coordinate pairs (7,0) and (2,5). Which items did Mrs. Graf buy at the department store?

A.

D.

Answer 1

To determine which items Mrs. Graf bought, we first need to identify the locations of each item based on the coordinate pairs provided:

1. Socks: Located at the coordinates (0, 7), which is 7 units above the x-axis on the y-axis.
2. Shoes: Located at the coordinates (2, 5), which is 5 units above the x-axis and 2 units to the right of the y-axis.
3. Towels: Located at the coordinates (5, 2), which is 2 units above the x-axis and 5 units to the right of the y-axis.
4. Dishes: Located at the coordinates (7, 0), which is 7 units to the right of the y-axis on the x-axis.

Next, we match the items purchased by Mrs. Graf with their coordinates:
- The coordinates (7, 0) correspond to Dishes.
- The coordinates (2, 5) correspond to Shoes.

Thus, Mrs. Graf bought:
- Dishes at (7, 0)
- Shoes at (2, 5)

Therefore, the correct answer is:

**A. dishes and shoes**
