The x coordinate is our first value, and the y coordinate is our second value.
We also know that the x axis is horizontal, and the y axis is vertical.
Lastly, the origin Is the point (0,0)
If point D is two units away from the origin on the x axis, we know that the x value, or the first value, has to be 2 or -2.
If point D is four units away from the origin on the y axis, we know that the y value, or the second value, has to be 4 or -4.
From your options listed, (2,4) would be correct.
Hope this helps!
