Question

Which best describes how to get from the origin to the point (7, –4)?

A.
Move 7 units up, then 4 units to the left.

B.
Move 7 units up, then 4 units to the right.

C.
Move 7 units to the left, then 4 units down.

D.
Move 7 units to the right, then 4 units down.

Answer 1

D would be your answer
Here's why
(7,-4) ---- (X,Y)
X-axis is horizontal (Left-Right) Y-Axes is vertical (Up-DOwn)
On the coordinate grid in Quad I its all positive
So when moving on the X-Axis Left is negative Right is positive
When moving on the Y-Axis Up is positive and DOwn is negative
So when u plot it on your graph, You see that the 7 is a positive and its in your X space (x,y) so you move Right 7 spaces and -4 is on your Y spot so after moving 7 to the right you move down 4 spaces
