Answer:

D

Explanation:

First we can start with north and south. This menas the y value is affected and not the x.

(-6, 10) The y(10) can have +4 and -4, which is 14 and 6. D has both (-6, 14) and (-6, 6)

For East and west, x is changed and right is not so

(-6, 10) The x(-6) can have +4 and -4, which is -2 and -10, D has both (-10, 10) (-2, 10)

That's why D is the right answer
