Question

Point R on the coordinate grid below shows the location of a car in a parking lot. A second car needs to park 6 units above R to leave room for a utility truck. What are the coordinates of the location of the second

Answer 1

`R' = (-4 , 4)`

Explanation:

Given

See attachment for the grid coordinate

From the attachment, we have that:

`R = (-4,-2)`

Required

Determine the coordinates of the second truck

Represent the position with R'

From the question, we understand the position of R' is 6 above R

When a point (a,b) is moved n point above, the new point becomes (a, b + n)

So:

`R = (-4,-2)`

When moved 6 points above becomes:

`R' = (-4 , -2 + 6)`

`R' = (-4 , 4)`

Hence, (-4,4) answers the question
