Question

MEDAL & FAN ANYBODY ?
A triangle with vertices at (1, 2), (–1, –6) and (7, –2) is translated five units to the left and 7 units upward. The coordinates of the translated triangle are:
a. (6, 9), (4, 1) and (12, 5)
b. (–4, –5), (–6, –13) and (2, –9)
c. (6, –5), (4, –13) and (12, –9)
d. (–4, 9), (–6, 1) and (2, 5)

Answer 1

Take a guess. Which one do you think it is?

Answer 2

I think a @ohlookidontunderstandanotherthing

Answer 3

five units to the left = subtract 5 from first (x) coordinate
7 up means add 7 to y coordinate

Answer 4

so what does (1,2) translate to?

Answer 5

Your answer will actually be, If I am correct, D. If you take all your coordinates and subtract 5 from X and add 7 you'll get your answer. So for the first coordinate it would be

\[\frac{ 1-5 }{ 2+7 }\]

Answer 6

(1 -5 , 2 + 7) = ?

Answer 7

@cwrw238 is it D ?

Answer 8

that' s weird - my last 2 posts swopped around!!??

Answer 9

thats right

Answer 10

(-4,9)

Answer 11

yes

Answer 12
