Question

On a coordinate grid Ming's house is located 2 blocks to the right and 5 blocks up from (0,0). Joe house is located 3 blocks to the right and 2 blocks down from Ming's house. What ordered pair describes the location of joe house?

Answer 1

Answer:

  (5, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Conventionally, the ordered pairs are (right, up). Then ...

Ming's = (0, 0) + (2, 5) = (2, 5)

Joe's = Ming's + (3, -2) = (2, 5) + (3, -2) = (2+3, 5-2)

Joe's = (5, 3)
