Question

You start at (2, 5). You move left 5 units and right 8 units. Where do you end?

Answer 1

Answer:

(5,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

left 5 is -5 and right 8 is +8.

-5+8=3

2+3=5

When talking about left and right, you change the x-coordinate, when up and down, y-coordinate.

Overall, (5,5)

Answer 2

Answer:

5,5

Step-by-step explanation:

since we are not changing the height of the point and just moving side to side, the y intercept does not change. Once you move 5 units to the left, your new point is -3,5 but then when you move 8 to the right it switches to positive again and the new point is 5,5
