Question

Write the coordinates of point X(-7,5) and point Y(-1,-1). Help would be appreciated!

A) X(-7,5), Y(-1,-1)
B) X(5,-7), Y(-1,-1)
C) X(7,-5), Y(1,1)
D) X(1,1), Y(5,-7)

Answer 1

The correct coordinates for point X are (-7,5), and for point Y are (-1,-1), which corresponds to Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of point X(-7,5) and point Y(-1,-1) are as follows: Option A X(-7,5), Y(-1,-1). The coordinates are expressed in the Cartesian coordinate system where the first value in the pair represents the x-coordinate (horizontal axis) and the second value represents the y-coordinate (vertical axis). Thus, for point X, the x-coordinate is -7, and the y-coordinate is 5. Similarly, for point Y, the x-coordinate is -1, and the y-coordinate is -1. Therefore, the correct answer to the student's question is Option A: X(-7,5), Y(-1,-1).
