The first coordinate represents units to the right; the second coordinate represents units up. If the values are negative, the direction is the opposite.
(2, -3) represents 2 units to the right and 3 units down. The 1st choice is appropriate.
Answer:
Option A.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a point is defined as P(a,b).
If a>0, then point is a units right from origin and if a<0, then then point is a units left from origin.
If b>0, then point is b units up from origin and if b<0, then then point is b units down from origin.
It is given that the location of the movie theater is at (2, −3).
In the given point a=2>0 and b=-3<0.
A coordinate grid with a point at 2 units to the right and 3 units down from the origin labeled movie theater.
Therefore, the correct option is A.
