Final answer:

To find the coordinates of the second car, add 5 units to the y-coordinate of Point R. The coordinates of the second car are (1, 3).

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the coordinates of the location of the second car, we need to move 5 units above the coordinates of Point R. Remember that moving up means adding to the y-coordinate. Let's assume the coordinates of Point R are (x, y). The coordinates of the second car will be (x, y+5). Therefore, the correct answer is B. (1, 3).
