OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which rule represents the translation of hexagon DEFGHI to hexagon D'E'F'G'H'I'?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a. (x, y)→(x + 4, x - 2) b. (x, y)→(x - 7, y + 7) c. (x, y)→(x + 2, x - 4) d. (x, y)→(x + 7, y - 7)

@ganeshie8 ineed u again

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

wat are the coordinates of D ? wat are the coordinates of D' ?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

look at graph and see if u can figure them out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(-1.1). (-5.6) something like that

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

try again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ganeshie8 wat is it

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

tell me the coordinates of D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

on both

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

top left figure has D bottom guy has D'

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(1,-1), (6,-6)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

almost correct !

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it the other way around

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or is it -6,6

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

coordinates of D before translation : (-6, 6) coordinates of D' after translation : (1, -1)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

yes you're right

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

-6 is becoming 1 that means, its getting added by 7 : x --> x+7

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

6 is becoming -1 that means, y--> ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its B

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

careful

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nevermind it cant be b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it C then that's the closest one I think

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

why do u think its C. and u dint care to reply my previous quesiton i asked :o

OpenStudy (ikram002p):

try to find the role that goes well with the translation for Example take the point \[G (-3,1)\rightarrow G \prime (4,-6)\] which one of the three possibilities applies

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which ones can we cancel out

OpenStudy (ikram002p):

u tell me :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think b and c now

OpenStudy (ikram002p):

So u've canceld b & c now try if a or d apply it
