Not going to plot the points for you. I expect that is within your comprehension.

If you plot point B five units to the left of A, that means x is going to decrease by 5. That means that the coordinates of B are B(4 - 5, 3) = B(-1, 3).

Hope this helps.

Point B (4,-2) is the answer because 3-5= -2
