Question

Raj plotted point L in the coordinate plane below.

On a coordinate plane, point L is 1.5 units to the left and 4 units up.

He says that the plotted point is (4, negative 1.5). What is Raj’s error?
The x-coordinate should be -4.
The y-coordinate should be 1.5.
The x- and y-coordinates are switched.
Both coordinates should be positive.

Answer 1

c

Explanation:

Answer 2

The x- and y-coordinates are switched

Explanation:

Here, we want to identify the error in the plot

1.5 units to the left, that is negative x-axis (-1.5)

4 units up is 4

So the coordinate point is (-1.5,4)

So the error on what he gave was that both coordinates were switched
