Very nice. Nothing to do with this problem statement. You just need to find the indicated point.

So, plug in all the answers?

Answer 5

1) There is no such thing as "plug in".
2) Substitute into what? There is no equation.

Just name the point by giving its address.

The Origin is (0,0)
The point one unit to the right of the Origin is (1,0)
The point two units below the Origin is (0,-2)

Just write down the point's address. That's all it wants.
