Answer:

(5,-2).

_______________________

South is Negative Y axis.

East is Positive X axis.

(look at the compass in the top right corner)

Cory's current coordinates are (1,1).

When Cory walks 3 units south, he moves 3 steps downwards in the Y axis, which means if his current Y position is 1, we subtract 3, ( 1 - 3 = -2).

And when Cory moves 4 units east, Add 4 as he is walking in the positive X axis. (4 + 1 = 5).

new (x,y) are (5,-2).
