Answer:

(x, y) → (x+3, y-2) means Translation 3 units left and 2 units down.

Explanation:

Given the rule of transformation:

(x, y) → (x+3, y-2)

If we move horizontally 3 units to the right, 3 is added to the x-coordinate of any given point, and then 2 units down.

In other words,

(x, y) → (x+3, y-2) means Translation 3 units left and 2 units down.

For example,

Let say if we have the point A(4, 5)

Using the translation rule:

(x, y) → (x+3, y-2)

A(4, 5) → A'(4 + 3, 5 - 2) → A'(7, 3)

Therefore, the new position of A(4, 5) after translating 3 units left and 2 units down would be: A'(7, 3)
