What are the coordinates of point F? On a coordinate plane, point F is 4 units to the right and 2.5 units down.

whats the anser

Answer:

Explanation:

Four to the right means that x := 4

2.5 units down means that y = -2.5

The answer is (4,-2.5)

or

(four, and minus 2.5)

Is that the third one? I think it is.

Answer:

(4, -2.5)

which agrees with the third answer you typed: (4, negative 2 and one-half)

Explanation:

If this is referred relative to the origin of coordinates (0, 0), then moving to the right 4 units makes x = 4.

Moving down 2.5 units makes y = -2.5

then the point you reach on the plane is given by the coordinates: (4, -2.5)
