Question

Okay I'm super confused and I do not understand this question at all, If someone could please explain how to answer the question that would be awesome.

Write a translation rule that maps point D(7, -3) into point D'(2, 5).

Answer 1

Well I mean...if we begin at (7,-3)

We need to go down on the x-axis to 2 and up on the y-axis to 5

So we need to move (x - 5, y + 8)

Why is that correct? because if you plug in the original (7,-3) (x,y) into that rule we write...we have

(7 - 5, -3 + 8)

which would be

(2,5) like we want

Answer 2

Oh, that makes sense. I think i got it from here thank you!

Answer 3

Of course :)
