An ant moves 3 units along the positive direction of the X-axis from the origin and reaches a point P, then moves 4 units from P along the negative direction of the Y-axis and reaches a point Q. What are the coordinates of points P and Q?

Solution

Since the ant is moving 3 units along the positive direction of x-axis from the origin, the coordinate of point P is (3, 0) and then ant moves 4 units along the negative direction of y-axis the coordinates of point Q is (3, -4).
