Question

This room has scratch marks on the floor. Tyler wants to slide the rug over to cover the scratch marks. What kind of translation should he perform that will conceal the scratches?

Answer 1

Over 5 and up 5
X+5, Y+5

Answer 2

He has to translate 5-units vertically and 5-units horizontally.

Explanation:

This room has scratch marks on the floor. Tyler wants to slide the rug over to cover the scratch marks.

So Tyler has to first translate 5 units to the right and than 5 units upward to cover the scratch.

since for the x-points he has to change his range from 2-4 to 7-9

and for the y-points he has to change his range from 1-4 to 6-9.

i.e. he has to translate his figure 5 units horizontally and 5-units vertically.

i.e. if it is represented by some function f(x).

then the translation is:

f'=f(x-5)+5
