To translate the triangle we will translate each vertex using the rule of translation given

The vertice of the triangle are

(-1, 4), (-5, -2), (-8, 2)

The translation rule is T (3, 2)

That means we will add the x-coordinate of each point by 3,

and the y-coordinates by 2

The image of point (-1, 4) = (-1 + 3, 4 + 2) = (2, 6)

The image of point (-5, -2) = (-5 + 3, -2 + 2) = (-2, 0)

The image of point (-8, 2) = (-8 + 3, 2 + 2) = (-5, 4)

That means the triangle will move 3 units right and 2 units up

The images of the vertices are (2, 6), (-2, 0), (-5, 4)
