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

5 units left will be - 5 for the x-value

7 units upward will be + 7 for the y-value

Just subtract 5 from x and add 7 to y

Answer 2

So:

1 - 5 = ?

2 + 7 = ?

Answer 4

@iGreen 1-5=-4
2+7=9

Answer 5

Right, so the first coordinate is (-4, 9) and only one Option has that..which one is it?
