Sam started his morning walk from the location indicated by the point below. He walked 5 units south and met his friend Joshua.

Answer 1

To indicate Sam's starting point and his movement towards the south, we can use a coordinate plane. Let's assume the point where Sam started his morning walk is (0,0).

Starting point: (0,0)

Sam walked 5 units south. Since he moved in the south direction, the y-coordinate of his position decreased by 5 units.

Position after walking south: (0, -5)

Here is the visual representation on a coordinate plane:
