For this case we can use the following translation rule:
(x, y) -------> (x, y + k) ------> (x ', y')
Where,
k: number> 0
Substituting values we have:
(-3, -6) -------> (-3, -6 + 5) ------> (-3, -1)
Answer:
the rule for finding a point translated vertically k units up is:
(x, y + k)
The new coordinates are:
(-3, -1)
