Question

You move left 5 units. You end at (-1, 5). Where did you start?

Answer 1

You started at (4, 5)

Explanation:

The first number of coordinate pair is x. you started at the right and THEN moved the the left, as stated in the question. So -1 + 5 is 4.
So you started at (4, 5)

Answer 2

(4,5)

Explanation:

Hello!

If you move 5 units to the left, you change the x-value in (x, y) by -5.

Let the original x-value be x:

• x - 5 = -1
• x = 4

The original x-value is 4. Since you didn't change the y-value (up/down), you can keep the same y-value for the coordinate.

The original point was at (4,5)
