Answer:

(4,0,-5)

Explanation:

Since we move 4 points along +ve x-axis so, x coordinate is 4

We did not move any point along y-axis so y coordinate is 0

we moved 5 points along -ve z-axis so z coordinate is -5

so our position is (x,y,z) = (4,0,-5)

Suppose you start at the origin, move along the x-axis a distance of 4 units in the-example-1
