Eric, Cam, and Brooke are playing a game of mini golf on a computer. The computer program for the game stores

objects in terms of I and y coordinates. All coordinate values are in meters.

The players are shooting at the hole, which is located at (3,2). After hitting their initial shots, Eric's golf ball is at

(-6,6). Cam's golf ball is at (8,-6), and Brooke's golf ball is at (10,8).

If the player whose ball is farthest from the hole should shoot next, which player should shoot next?

Choose 1

Eric

Step-by-step explanation:

For we solve this problem, we have to determine the distance of each player to the hole using the distance formula.

D = √(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

The hole for Eric is

The hole is at (3,2)

Eric's golf ball is at point (-6,6)

= √(-6-3)²+(6-2)²

= √-9²+4²

= √81+16

= √97

= 9.85 approx

The for Brooke

The hole is at (3,2)

Brooke's golf ball is at point (10,8)

= √(10-3 )²+(8-2)²

= √7²+6²

= √ 85

= 9.22 approx

Base on the two values gotten, Eric distance is more far compare to Brooke, therefore Eric should be the one to shoot next .
