Answer:

G'(0,5)

H'(4,-5)

F'(-2,-2)

Explanation:

We need to identify the three vertices from the figure on the graph:

G(-3,5)

H(1,-5)

F(-5,-2).

If we translate these points 3 units to right, then that effects the x-coordinates.

So 3 more than -3, is 0.

3 more than 1 is 4.

3 more than -5 is -2.

So the new points are:

G'(0,5)

H'(4,-5)

F'(-2,-2).
