Question

Describe in words the translation represented by the translation rule (x, y) (x – 7, y – 7)

7 units to the left and 7 units down
7 units to the left and 7 units up
7 units to the right and 7 units up
7 units to the right and 7 units down

Answer 1

If I remember correctly when I learned this in algebra. When you subtract from the x, you usually go the opposite way, so for x you go 7 units to the right and y doesn't have the same crazy rule as x so it is what it is, so you go down 7 units. So your answer is 7 units to the right and 7 units down

Answer 2

y-7: 7 units down
x-7: 7 units right
