For solving this, we need to find the values of the coordinates for A, B, C, and D.

In this case, we have that:

A (2, 1)

B (6, 1)

C (6, 3)

D (2, 3)

Then, we have the rule of the transformation (a Translation):

(x, y) ---> (x + 2, y - 3). That is, this rule tells us' two units to the right and 3 units downward.

Thus, for each coordinate in the preimage ABCD, we will have an image A'B'C'D'.

Therefore:

Having the point A (2, 1), applying the rule of transformation, we have:

(2, 1) ---> (2 + 2, 1 -3) = (4, -2)

Point B:

(6, 1) ---> (6 + 2, 1 - 3) = (8, -2)

Point C:

(6, 3) ---> (6 + 2, 3 - 3) = (8, 0)

Point D:

(2, 3) ---> (2 + 2, 3 - 3) = (4, 0)

Then, the coordinates for the image is:

A'(4, -2)

B'(8, -2)

C'(8, 0)

D'(4, 0)

Therefore, after the transformation ( a translation ), we have that the coordinates for the image of the quadrilateral are:

A'(4, -2), B'(8, -2), C'(8, 0), D'(4, 0).
