Question

When point A( 3, 1) is translated 2 units to the right and 6 units up the coordinates of point A'

Answer 1

A' = (5,7)

Explanation:

So, we start with the original point A at (3,1), that means x = 3 and y = 1.

We move it 2 units to the right... so we're moving along the X-axis... and we're moving to the right.. so we're increasing the value of x. That means starting with x = 3, we go 2 more units... we then get to x = 5.

In the same way, we move 6 units up... so we move along the Y-axis. We go up, so we also increase the value of y. Starting with y = 1, we move up by 6 units... so we are now at y = 7.

A' point is then at (5,7).
