Question

Point A is located at (3, 4) and is translated left 5 and up 3. What is the new location of point A?
A. (8, 7)
B. (8, 1)
C. (-2, 1)
D. (-2, 7)

Answer 1

so you start at (3,4) where x = 3 and y = 4

we move to the left 5.... so we subtract 5 from x.

now we want to move up 3.... so we add 3 to y

Answer 2

makes sense?

Answer 3

yess! -2, 7 . i don't like when they put words like translation in there cause then i just feel like second guessing myself. thanks, i stepped away for a minute so my apologies for making you wait.

Answer 4

Answer 5

Answer 6
