Question

Which is a rule that describes the translation of a point from (-5, 4) to (-1, 2)?

A. (xy-> (x-4, y-2)
B.(x,y)->(x+4, y-2)
C.(x,y)->(x+4, y+2)
D.(x,y)->(x-4, y+2)

Answer 1

`\large\boxed{B.\ (x,\ y)\to(x-4,\ y-2)}`

Explanation:

`(-5;\ 4)\xrightarrow{(+4,-2)}(-1;\ 2)\\\\-5+4=-1\to(x+4)\\4-2=2\to(y-2)`
