Question

Suppose you started at the point (4, 5). From there, you moved down 10 units, and left 8. At what coordinate would you be?

Answer 1

(- 4, - 5 )

Explanation:

a vertical move down means subtract 10 from the y- coordinate

a horizontal move left means subtract 8 from the x- coordinate

(4, 5 ) → (4 - 8, 5 - 10 ) → (- 4, - 5 ) ← end point
