Choose the correct answer below. A. The student interchanged the $x$ - and $y$-coordinates. To plot this point correctly, move from 0 to the right 5 units on the $x$-axis and then up 3 units parallel to the $y$-axis. B. The student moved in an incorrect direction along the $y$-axis. To plot this point correctly, move from 0 to the right 3 units on the $x$-axis and then down 5 units parallel to the $y$-axis. C. The student moved in an incorrect direction along the $x$-axis. To plot this point correctly, move from 0 to the left 3 units on the $x$-axis and then up 5 units parallel to the $y$-axis. D. The student interchanged the $x$-and $y$-coordinates. To plot this point correctly, move from 0 to the left 5 units on the $x$-axis and then down 3 unils paralel to the $y$-axis.
