Question

Trapezoid jklm is shown on the coordinate plane below: trapezoid jklm on the coordinate plane with ordered pairs at j (-7, -2), at k (-4, -2), at l (-2, -5), at m (-9, -5). If trapezoid jklm is translated according to the rule (x, y) → (x + 8, y - 3), what are the coordinates of point l²?

1) (1, -5)
2) (-10, 6)
3) (-5, 3)
4) (6, -8)

Answer 1

Applying the given translation rule, the coordinates of point l² are (6, -8).

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the coordinates of point l², we need to apply the given translation rule (x, y) → (x + 8, y - 3) to the coordinates of point l.

Coordinates of point l: (-2, -5)

When we apply the translation rule, we get:

New x-coordinate of l: -2 + 8 = 6

New y-coordinate of l: -5 - 3 = -8

Therefore, the coordinates of point l² are (6, -8).
