Question

In the first quadrant, you start at (2,3) and move 2 units right and 1 units up what point will you end up on

Answer 1

(4, 4)

Explanation:

On the Cartesian plane, values on the x-axis increase to the right, and values on the y-axis increase as you go vertically upwards.

x-coordinate = 2

y-coordinate = 3

•Moving 2 units to the right adds 2 to the x-coordinate.

∴ new x-coordinate = 2 + 2 = 4

• Moving 1 unit up adds 1 to the y-coordinate.

∴ new y-coordinate = 3 + 1 = 4

∴ You will end up on the point (4, 4).
