Answer 1

so you started with R(-5,-5)
and R' became (-11,-11)

lets look at the x-coordinate first
how do you get from -5 to -11?

By moving it to the left 6

Answer 3

correct. so do you add or subtract 6?

Answer 4

Sorry I took so long, my computer was having problems.

Answer 5

its ok.
so you're saying -5+6=-11. is that true?

Answer 6

No, you subtract 6.

Answer 7

yes. so the translation for your x would be x-6

now lets do the y-coordinate
again it went from -5 to -11
can you find the rule?

Answer 8

y-6?

Answer 9

correct!
so your translation would be
(x-6,y-6)
