Hanna is plotting a point in coordinate space. She starts at the origin and moves backward eight units along the x-axis. Then she moves right one unit parallel to the y-axis. Finally, she moves down five units parallel to the z-axis and plots the point. What are the coordinates of the point that she plots?

Answer:

( -8,0, 0) , ( -8, 1, 0) and ( -8, 1, -5)

Explanation:

We need to visualize the given situation in 3D

Coordinates is in the form of (x, y, z)

Henna starts from origin moves back 8 units Negative x-axis

x = -8 point will be ( -8,0, 0)

turning 1 unit right will be parallel to the y axis in positive y-axis direction

y = 1 point will be ( -8, 1, 0)

Moving down by 5 units, Negative z-axis

Z = -5 point will be ( -8, 1, -5)
