Question

Point B​′​​(6,−5) is the image of B(−5,−2) under a translation. Determine the translation. Use non-negative numbers.

A translation by _____ units the (right or left) and _______ units (up or down).

Answer 1

11 right and 3 down

Explanation:

Answer 2

B' is 11 right and 3 down from B

Explanation:

The translation is from (-5, -2) to (6, -5). That is the values (h, k) were added to the coordinates where ...

-5 +h = 6

h = 11 . . . . . . . a translation of 11 to the right

and

-2 +k = -5

k = -3 . . . . . . . a translation of -3 upward is a translation of 3 downward.

B' is 11 units to the right and 3 units down from B.
