Answer:

(3, 0)

Explanation:

We are given the point (-1, -2) and told to move four units to the right and 2 units up. Four units to the right is on the x axis which means we add four units to our x value which is -1, and for our y axis add two units since we are being told to move the point up not down.


(-1,-2)

-1+4=3

-2+2=0

=(3,0)

Your new location for the point is "(3, 0)."

Hope this helps.
