In a one-dimensional number line, moving 15 units to the right from 0 means adding 15 to 0. Therefore, 15 units right of 0 is at the point +15 on the number line. This can also be expressed as the coordinate (15,0) in a Cartesian coordinate system.
Start at te Origin - the point where the axes cross. Move 4 units to the right. Then move 5 units upwards. Mark the spot. Done!

A point on a 3-d coordinate system would take the form of (x,y,z). You go x units on the x-axis (left or right), y units on the y-axis (up or down), and z units on the z-axis, (front or back).
In quadrant II, the x-value is negative and the y-value is positive. Since the point is 5 units from the origin, the x-coordinate will be -5. The point is also 4 units from the origin in the y-direction, making the y-coordinate 4. Therefore, the point is located at (-5, 4).
Compare it's position to the origin. The x coordinate is the number of units to the right of the origin. (If it is to the left of the origin the x coordinate is negative.) The y coordinate is the number of units above the origin. (If it is below, the y coordinate is negative.) The point is denoted (x,y) with the x coordinate in place of the x and the y coordinate in place of the y.
That depends on the direction of the point in reference to the original coordinate. If the new point is 5 units to the right of (1,3), then the point is (6,3). If the point is 5 units left of (1,3), then the point is (-4,3). And so on.
In a one-dimensional number line, moving 15 units to the right from 0 means adding 15 to 0. Therefore, 15 units right of 0 is at the point +15 on the number line. This can also be expressed as the coordinate (15,0) in a Cartesian coordinate system.
if a figure is shifted 3 units to the right, you add to the coordinate

(0,0) = the origin
Given only the coordinates of that point, one can infer that the point is located 10 units to the right of the y-axis and 40 units above the x-axis, on the familiar 2-dimensional Cartesian space.
