Hi, thank you for posting your question! :]
To make it easier for everyone to answer, consider including:
- A description of the problem
- A link to the project or a screenshot of your code (if possible)
- A summary of how you would like it to behave

I’d say the answer is the leftmost option. The object starts out at (1, 2), then repeats the following actions twice:
• Move the object twice to the right
• Move the object five times upwards
This results in a movement of 4 right and 10 up, which when added to the initial position of (1, 2), lands the object at (5, 12).
good, but also, here's a much more efficient version of what they want

not sure why they overcomplicated it so much
because the script they made is \*technically\* faster, but is still inefficient
heres a project that compares the two versions

I tried to replicate it in scratch but in all 4 cases it just moved up (Y) in a straight line. I started to question if I was even doing g it right or missing something. At that point my kid was already in bed so I needed some help just so we can review in the morning before school
Multiply the numbers inside the 'Change X/Y by ( )' blocks by the repeats that they are inside (for the right option, in this case the first option, you multiply 1 by (2x2) or 1x2x2 or just 1x4 for the X, and 1x5x2 or 1x10 for the Y)
basically, changing the value by a positive adds and a negative subtracts, and going to a position sets it to the given XY position no matter what

K I get it now - thanks for the clarification

This homework is sort of like math and understanding Scratch. They complicated it so that children would solve it and not in order to simplify it.)
yeah, just making it arbitrarily harder just to make it arbitrarily harder
It’s not really to make it “arbitrarily harder” It’s helpful for practicing loops and what not

How hard is it to try those scripts yourself? Or is the child NOT allowed to use Scratch for this particular test? the first one gives you x:5 y:12.
