Question

Jon places a point on a coordinate plane at (-1, -12). He wants to place another point across the y-axis, and it must be 11 points away. Where will Jon place the other point?

Answer 1

To place another point across the y-axis, Jon needs to keep the x-coordinate the same and change the sign of the y-coordinate. Since the current y-coordinate is -12, Jon needs to move 11 points away, so the new y-coordinate will be 12.

Therefore, the other point will be placed at (-1, 12).
