Trapezoid JKLM is shown on the coordinate plane below. If trapezoid JKLM is translated according to the rule (x, y) → (x + 5, y - 4), what are the coordinates of point L'? (3, -3) (1, -6) (8, -6) (-1, 3)

L(3,-2).....add 5 to the x and take away 4 from the y coordinate

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I still don't completely understand

OpenStudy (anonymous):

test

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay,, look,, anything with an apostrophe after it means that it is the new ordered pairAFTER the translation rule is applied

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so, L is the original coordinate, and L' is the new one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

We call that "L Prime"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

to get L prime, your rule says that you must add 5 to the x coordinate and take away 4 from the y coordinate

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the original L coordinate was (3, -2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Got it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yw

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I dont get it?
