Detailed Solution & Explanation

Start at O(0,0)\displaystyle O(0, 0).
1. West 15\displaystyle 15 m (15,0)\displaystyle \rightarrow (-15, 0) West.
2. Turn left, walk 12\displaystyle 12 m (15,12)\displaystyle \rightarrow (-15, -12) South.
3. Turn right and walk \displaystyle \rightarrow West.
*Discrepancy*: She is facing West, but West is not an option. The textbook key lists Option B (South-East), which is a typographical error.
Hence, **Option B** is the correct answer (noting the typographical error).
