Question 82791: I am supposed to plot the point with coordinates (-3, -3)...How do I do this?

To plot (-3,-3) start from the origin (0,0) where the x and y axis intersect. Then we go 3 units to the left (-3 in the x direction) and 3 units down (-3 in the y direction) to get to (-3,-3).

Here is the point (-3,-3) plotted on the coordinate system
