Question

If point F is translated 8 units left and 3 units up, what are the coordinates of F?

Answer 1

(Fx - 8, Fy + 3)

Explanation:

Let's say that the inital coordinates are (Fx, Fy)

Now, it will be: (Fx - 8, Fy + 3). Substitute and you got your answer!

Answer 2

The coordinates of the point F after translation are: F'(-1, - 2)

How to find the coordinates after translation?

There are different types of transformation such as;

Rotation

Reflection

Dilation

Translation

Now, from the attached file, the coordinates of point F are;

F(7, - 5)

When we translate 8 units left and 3 units up, it means that we subtract 8 from the x value and add 3 to the y value to get;

F'(7 - 8, -5 + 3)

= F'(-1, - 2)
