Sarah 4

Sarah and Jamal were learning partners in math class and were working independently. They each started at the point (−2, 5) and moved 3 units vertically in the plane. Each student arrived at a different endpoint. How is this possible? Explain and list the two different endpoints.

Final Answer:

A = (-2,8)
B = (-2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

$$\begin{gathered} O=(-2,5) \\ A=(O_x,O_y+3) \\ A=(-2,5+3) \\ A=(-2,8) \end{gathered}$$

$$\begin{gathered} B=(O_x,O_y-3) \\ B=(-2,5-3) \\ B=(-2,2) \end{gathered}$$
