Answer 1

To find the correct coordinates for the paper and pencils based on the descriptions given:

- **Paper** is located at 7 units above the x-axis and 8 units right of the y-axis, which corresponds to the coordinates **(8, 7)**.
- **Pencils** are located 2 units right of the y-axis on the x-axis, which corresponds to the coordinates **(2, 0)**.

Now, let's match these findings with the options provided:

A. (7, 8) and (0, 2)
B. (7, 8) and (2, 0)
C. (8, 7) and (0, 2)
D. (8, 7) and (2, 0)

The correct coordinates for paper and pencils are (8, 7) for paper and (2, 0) for pencils, which corresponds to option **D. (8, 7) and (2, 0)**.
