4. If the rule (x, y) → (x + 3, y – 3) is applied to the original triangle, give the coordinates of and draw the image. Show your work for calculating the coordinates of the resulting image. Answer:

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

(x, y) → (x + 3, y – 3) means "shift each point 3 units to the right and 3 units down"

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

the "x+3" portion tells you to shift each point 3 units to the right and the "y-3" piece tells you to shift each point 3 units down

i dont understand what u r telling me to do

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

the rule just tells you how to move any point

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

in this case, you just move it 3 units to the right, then 3 units down

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so use the given points and the rule to find the new points

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can u show me

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what is one point given to you?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did you get it

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

I tried opening it, but it won't open properly. Is there another way to send it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i will send it one more time

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

it might be the fact that I don't have the proper software to open docx files, I'm not sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did you get it

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yes I see it now thanks

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

what are the coordinates of point A?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you open this file

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did you get that one

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

ok that's much better, thank you

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

A is the point (0,3) so shift it 3 units to the right to get (3,3) then shift it down 3 units to get (3,0)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

see how I'm getting this?
