If the preimage (2,5) were translated to image A' (-4,7), which rules of translation were used

Shaypop:

Can y'all help me

aevans182:

Is there a pic?

AZ:

Let's first look at the x-value and then the y-value \( ( \color{red}{x}, \color{orange}{y})\) so we have \( ( \color{red}{2}, \color{orange}{5})\) and \( ( \color{red}{-4}, \color{orange}{7})\) so let's start with the x-value in red how much are you adding to 2 to make it -4 2 + x = -4 that's how much you translate the x-value can you solve for x?

MidNiGhtSkY:

and do you know the rules about it?

Shaypop:

Do you do 4+-2

Shaypop:

X= -6

MidNiGhtSkY:

so 4+ -2 = -6?

MidNiGhtSkY:

oop, nvm :> your correct :)

Shaypop:

Ok

Shaypop:

Down 6, Right 2 Right 6, Down 2 Up 6, Left 2 Left 6, Up 2

Shaypop:

What’s the next step

AZ:

so when you have x as -6 would we be moving towards the left or right?

MidNiGhtSkY:

do you know the rules?

AZ:

think of a number line, where is -6 in relation to 0 is it towards the left or right

Shaypop:

Left

AZ:

good, so we move 6 units left

Shaypop:

So it’s left 6 up 2

AZ:

now let's look at the y-unit we're going from 5 to 7 so how much are we going up by?

AZ:

yup!

Shaypop:

Is that the answer

AZ:

remember the x value moves us left to right on the x-axis the y value moves us up and down the y-axis

AZ:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @Shaypop Is that the answer \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) yes

Shaypop:

Ok

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @AZ remember the x value moves us left to right on the x-axis the y value moves us up and down the y-axis \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) Okay
