In situations where the question asks for tools that show the exact executable used by the shell, which and type are more appropriate answers because they consider the shell's environment and $PATH. So, while locate could technically find executables, which and type are still the better choices in this case.

C and E is correct. locate would also show other Files and excecutables outside the $PATH directories. So it does not match the requirements of the question.

locate command will show every possible items that contained *command* It has default file globbing that needs regex control during searching.

Also locate command can show the full path of a executable, but if it says two all right, the other options are more correct.
