Question

You start at (2, 4). You move down 4 units and up 4 units. Where do you end?

Answer 1

(2, 4)

Explanation:

the same spot because 2 - 4 = -2, and the back up -2 + 4 = 2. we do not move left or right so there is no need to change the y value of 4

Answer 2

(2, 4)

Explanation:

We are given the points (2, 4) and we are told to move down four units, and then up 4 units. Since it's up and down not left and right it's telling us that we are moving the point on the y axis, which is the four, now all we have to do is subtract four units, and then add four more units on the y axis.

4 - 4 + 4 = 4

Leaving the points unchanged, your answer is "(2, 4)."

Hope this helps.
