If point A is located at (-7,-3),and there are 12 points between A and B, what could be the possible coordinates for point B?

Question

Point A (-7,-3), 12 points between A and B. What possible coordinates for pointB?

 

Answer 1

draw the coordinate plane and label point A (-7,-3)

there are 12 points between A and B

if there are 12 points between points A and B, you start at point A and you have to move 13 units either to the right, to the left, up, or down

from point A, move 13 units horizontally to the right to come to point B whose coordinates are (6,-3) because the y-coordinate does not change and -7+13=6

you can also move to the left as well

also...

from point A move 13 units vertically up to point B whose coordinates are (-7,10) because the x-coordinate does not change and -3+13=10

you can also move downwards as well

you also can move diagonally upwards or downwards

if you move upwards by going over 1 unit to the right and 1 unit up until you get to the 13th point (point B), its coordinates should be (6,10)
