What is the image point of (2,-7) after a translation right 4 units and up 3 units ?

Answer 1

Anwser: (−2,−7)→(−2+4,−7−2)=(2,−9)

Explanation: {right 4 units: add 4 to x-coordinate}

down 2 units: subtract 2 from y-coordinate

Answer 2

(6, - 4)

Explanation:

A translation of 4 units right is equivalent to adding 4 to the x- coordinate

A translation of 3 units up is equivalent to adding 3 to the y- coordinate

(x, y) → (x + 4, y + 3) ← translation rule

Hence

(2, - 7) → (2 + 4, - 7 + 3) → (6, - 4)
