Question

Select from the drop-down menus to correctly complete the statement.

The rule (x, y)→(x−1, y+3) represents a translation 1 unit (left, right, up, down) and 3 units (left, right, up, down)

Answer 1

Left and up

Explanation:

Answer 2

In the xy-plane,

Increase in x-value move the point right and decrease in x-value move the point left

Increase in y-value move the point up and decrease in y-value move the point down.

So, the translation of the point (x, y) to (x - 1, y + 3) would be one unit along x-axis to the left and 3 units along y-axis up.
