Sarah and Jamal were learning partners in math classes and were working independently. They each start at the same point (-2,5) and moved 3 units vertically in the plane. Each student arrived at a different endpoint. How is this possible? Explain and list the two different endpoints

Explanation:

One moved positive 3 units and one moved negative 3 units. The different endpoints are (-2,2) and (-2,8), since we subtract 3 from the second value once, and add 3 the second time.
