Question

you move left 1 unit. you end at (-2, -2). where did you start?

Explanation:

Step1: Reverse left movement on x-axis

Moving left subtracts 1 from x, so reverse: add 1 to end x-coordinate.
$x_{\text{start}} = -2 + 1 = -1$

Step2: Keep y-coordinate unchanged

Vertical position doesn't change with left/right movement.
$y_{\text{start}} = -2$

Answer:

$(-1, -2)$
