Question

Point A is located at (3, 4) and is translated right five units and down three units. What is the new location of point A?

A. (8, 1)

B. (-2, 7)

C. (-2, 1)

D. (8, 7)

Answer 1

8,7

Answer 2

how did you calculate that?

Answer 3

yes

Answer 4

3+5 , 4+3

Answer 5

for horizontal translation, add/subtract to the x coordinate: add if translating right; subtract if translating left.

for vertical translation, add/subtract to the y coordinate: add if translating up; subtract if translating down.

Answer 6

so the answer is NOT 8,7

Answer 7

then what's the answer?

Answer 8

see my first response... the second coordinate, the y-coordinate, should be 4 - 3 = 1

Answer 9

ohh so (8,1) is the answer?

Answer 10

yes

Answer 11

When Point E (-2, -5) is rotated 270° counterclockwise about the origin, it becomes (-5, 2).
