Question

The point (-3, 15) undergoes a translation of 9 units right and 10 units down. What are the coordinates of the new

point?
(-12,10)
® (-12,5)
(6,10)
D (6,5)

Answer 1

This would be D. (6, 5)

Explanation:

When moving 9 to the right, you take -3 and add 9 to it, which gives you 6.

Do the same thing with 15, but subtract 10 from it, since you are going to the left. This gives you 5.

Therefore, your answer should be (6, 5)

-3 + 9 = 6

15 + 10 = 5
