Complete Question:
The coordinate grid below shows triangle ABC and its image after translation, triangle A'B'C': Triangles ABC and A' B' C' are shown.
Which of the following completes the rule for this translation,
(x, y) → (x + 8, ___)?
Answer:
y - 3
Explanation:
Given
See Complete Question
Required
Complete the rule of translation
Taking A and A' as a point of reference
and
By comparing the x coordinates of A and A'
Make k the subject
So, the x coordinate is translated by x + 8
Similarly,
By comparing the y coordinates of A and A'
Make k the subject
So, the y coordinate is translated by y - 3
Hence, the complete translation is: (x + 8, y - 3)
