ectangle on a coordinate plane is translated 5 units up and 3 units to the left. Which rule describes the translation? (x, y) → (x + 5, y – 3) (x, y) → (x + 5, y + 3) (x, y) → (x – 3, y + 5) (x, y) → (x + 3, y + 5)

Answer: third option.

Explanation:

By definition, translation is transformation in which you move the shape.

Then, you know that the rectangle on a coordinate plane is translated 5 units up and 3 units to the left.

Therefore, you must add 5 units to each y-coordinate and subtract 3 units to each x-coordinate.

So, keeping the above on mind, you can conclude that the rule that describe this translation is the shown below:


(x,y)
(x-3,\ y+5)
