How to graph a point - PSAT Math
Card 0 of 2
A point at 
in the standard coordinate plane is shifted right 5 units and down 3 units. What are the new coordinates of the point?
A point at
The point 
shifted to the right 5 units will shift along the x-axis, meaning that you will add 5 to the original x-coordinate, so the new 
. The point shifted down by three units will shift down the y-axis, meaning that you will subtract three from the original y-coordinate, so the new 
.
The resultant coordinate is 
.
The point
The resultant coordinate is
Compare your answer with the correct one above
Give the coordinates of the point plotted in the above set of coordinate axes.
Give the coordinates of the point plotted in the above set of coordinate axes.
The point can be reached from the origin by moving 2 units right then 6 units up. This makes the first coordinate 2 and the second coordinate 6.
