Answer:

The new coordinates of the point are (6, 8)

Explanation:

Suppose we have a point (x, y)

Let's define the translations:

For a positive number N:

A translation of N units to the right is written as (x + N, y)

A translation of N units to the left is written as (x - N, y)

A translation of N units upwards is written as (x, y + N)

A translation of N units down is written as (x, y - N)

Then if we have the point (2, 5) and we want to translate it 4 units to the right, the new point will be (2 + 4, 5) = (6, 5)

And now we want to do a translation of 3 units up, then the new point is (6, 5 + 3) = (6, 8)

The new coordinates of the point are (6, 8)
