Question

AB has vertices at (–5, 1) and (–3, 7). After a transformation, the image had endpoints at (3, –1) and (5, 5). Describe the transformation.

A.
translation right 2 units and up 6 units
B.
rotation 90° about the origin
C.
translation right 8 units and down 2 units
D.
reflection across the y-axis

Answer 1

C) translation right 8 units and down 2 units

Explanation:

A = (-5, 1) = (-5+ 8, 1 -2) = (3, -1) = image

B (-3, 7) = (-3 + 8, 7 -2) = (5, 5) = image

The x coordinates represents the horizontal move and y coordinate represents the vertical.

Here translation right 8 units and down 2 units.

The answer is C) translation right 8 units and down 2 units.

Hope this will helpful.

Thank you.

Answer 2

Answer: C. translation right 8 units and down 2 units

Because when you add 8 to the x-components of AB and subtract 2 to the y-components of AB you get the new points or images.
