Question

a point 5,5 is translated 8 units to the left and 2 units down what is the coordinates of the new point?

Answer 1

(-3,3)

Answer 2

8 units to the left so you subtract 8 from 5 and get -3.
then 2 units down, subtract 2 from 5 and get 3. thus the coordinates are
(-3,3)

Answer 3

yes which is the same as what Lovelesstime got.

Answer 4

...Or you can move over 5, see what's left, so 3 then you're on the negative side, but you're still on 5 and you have to move down two. So 5 -2 = 3.
(-3,3)
