So you're supposed to find the coordinates of the figure after it has been translated. It tells us that the translation rule is (x,y) -> (x - 5, y - 4), so this means we have to subtract 5 from each x value and subtract 4 from each y value.
Do you get it so far?

It wouldn't let me type sorry! I think I got this question (c)
oh wait I forgot to put the answer choices
But can you walk me through it
First, notice that one square on the graph represents 2 units, because it tells us that 4 squares is 8 units on the graph. So for instance, if we want to move left 5 inches because we will subtract the x value by 5, we will move 2 and 1/2 squares to the left. Got it?
Yeah
So let's do point A first. We move left 5 units, which is 2.5 squares. How many squares do we need to move since we have 4 units to move down?
2
so that means that the figure will be on the bottom left part of the graph. so which choice has the figure at the bottom left part of the graph? @trueangel12312
C
Correct. :)
Thank you
no problem :p
