17. A moving truck fills up a shipment at an old
address at (-2, 1). It travels 7 blocks south and 6

location of the new address?

Answer:

(4,-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The y axis is the North and South direction, or up and down on the graph. Starting at point (-2,1), where y = 1, to move up add, or to move south subtract. To move 7 blocks south 1 - 7 = -6

The x axis is East and West or to the right or left respectively. To move East / right add, to move West / left subtract. In the point (-2,1) x = - 2 so to move 6 blocks east add. -2 + 6 = 4

Put the coordinates together (4,-6)
