Welcome to OpenStudy! What is the question? Do you need to find the translation rule (I think that is what it is called)?

anonymous · Answer

the the right by 11 and up by 3, all you have to do to find this is follow where point U' goes to become point U

anonymous · Answer

@trindawg so is (x,y) (x + 11, y - 3)

anonymous · Answer

for some reason instead of y + 3 they only have that

anonymous · Answer

are you sure its not x-11, y-3?

sleepyjess · Answer

Hmmmmm...... that is odd, they should have y+3 if it goes up 3, let me check really quick.

sleepyjess · Answer

Actually, she did the translation of S'T'U' to STU instead of STU to S'T'U.

anonymous · Answer

ah

anonymous · Answer

oh ok i got it. Sorry i didn't read it correctly

michele_laino · Answer

Please apy this traslation to your triangle STU:
$$X=x-11, \quad Y=y+3$$
where X and Y are the new coordinates

oops...please apply...

Can anyone help me with some more problems?

sleepyjess · Answer

To solve this, pick one point then see how far it goes to the left and down.
Hint: both numbers will be -

michele_laino · Answer

I'm sorry I have made an error, yopur traslation is:
$$X=x-11, \quad Y=y-3$$
