From $\"x=1\"$ to $\"x=-4\"$ is $\"-5\"$ units. So move $\"dx=-5%2F4\"$ starting at C.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=1-5%2F4=-1%2F4\"$
\n" ); document.write( "From $\"y=2\"$ to $\"y=-2\"$ is $\"-4\"$ units, so move $\"dy=-4%2F4=-1\"$ again starting at C.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"y=2-1=1\"$
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
