Question

you start at (-2, -4). you move down 1 unit and up 4 units. where do you end?

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze vertical - movement changes

The starting point is (-2, -4). Moving down 1 unit means subtracting 1 from the y - coordinate. The new y - coordinate is $-4-1=-5$.

Step2: Analyze the second vertical - movement

Then moving up 4 units means adding 4 to the current y - coordinate. So, $-5 + 4=-1$. The x - coordinate remains unchanged throughout the vertical movement and is still -2.

Answer:

(-2, -1)
