Question

Hexagon DEFGHI is translated on the coordinate plane below to create hexagon D'E'F'G'H'I'.


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

(x, y)→(x - 8, y - 7)

(x, y)→(x - 4, x - 5)

Answer 1

take an x,y ordered pair say D
which is (2,5) and D' (-6,-2) and look to see if you see an answer if not

2+x = -6 solve for x
5+y= -2 solve for y

Answer 2

so it would be -4,3 ?

Answer 3

to solve for x
2+x = -6 subtract 2 from both sides this isolates x

2-2)+x = -6-2
x=?

do the same for y

Answer 4

don't forget to check a few of the other points also.

Answer 5

Let's look about the point H and the point H'. H is (2, 1); H' is (-6, -6). 2-8=-6, 1-7=-6. So (x, y)→(x - 8, y - 7) is correct.

Answer 6

that actually makes sooo much sense !!! thank you !!
