Question

Which set of statements explains how to plot a point at the location (Negative 3 and one-half, negative 2)?

A: Start at the origin. Move 3 and one-half units right because the x-coordinate is Negative 3 and one-half. Negative 3 and one-half is between 3 and 4. Move 2 units down because the y-coordinate is -2.


B: Start at the origin. Move 3 and one-half units down because the x-coordinate is Negative 3 and one-half. Negative 3 and one-half is between -3 and -4. Move 2 units left because the y-coordinate is -2.


C: Start at the origin. Move 3 and one-half units down because the x-coordinate is Negative 3 and one-half. Negative 3 and one-half is between -3 and -4. Move 2 units right because the y-coordinate is -2.


D: Start at the origin. Move 3 and one-half units left because the x-coordinate is Negative 3 and one-half. Negative 3 and one-half is between -3 and -4. Move 2 units down because the y-coordinate is -2.

Answer 1

D: Start at the origin. Move 3 and one-half units left because the x-coordinate is Negative 3 and one-half. Negative 3 and one-half is between -3 and -4. Move 2 units down because the y-coordinate is -2.
