Lucinda graphed point Q on the coordinate grid. She will graph point R at a location 4 units away from point Q.
Which ordered pair could represent the location of point R?
Responses
A (–1,3)(–1,3)
B (–5,4)(–5,4)
C (–9,–1)(–9,–1)
D (–5,1)
To graph a point 4 units away from point Q, you need to find the coordinates by moving 4 units in the x-direction and 4 units in the y-direction from point Q.
The correct answer would be:
D (-5,1)
This is because the x-coordinate is 4 units to the left of the x-coordinate of point Q, and the y-coordinate is 4 units above the y-coordinate of point Q.
