Question

if the point (1,6) is shifted 3 units to the right and 4 units down, what are its new coordinates? the new coordinates of the point (1,6) after it is moved 3 units to the right and 4 units down are (type an ordered pair.)

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate new x - coordinate

Moving right increases x - value. So, $1 + 3=4$.

Step2: Calculate new y - coordinate

Moving down decreases y - value. So, $6-4 = 2$.

Answer:

$(4,2)$
