Final answer:
The rule for the translation that maps triangle RST to triangle rst is T(-7,-3), indicating a move 7 units left and 3 units down on the coordinate plane.
Step-by-step explanation:
The student has asked to select the rule for the translation that maps triangle RST to triangle rst. From the given choices, T-7.-3) represents the correct translation rule. This notation means the shape is moved 7 units to the left and 3 units down on the coordinate plane. To visualize this, one can draw an arrow for each movement; first an arrow pointing 7 units left for the horizontal translation, followed by an arrow pointing 3 units down for the vertical translation. When you apply this transformation to each point of the triangle RST, you will end up with the triangle rst at the new location.
The correct translation rule that maps A RST to arst is option D. T-7.-3. This rule states the translation is 7 units to the left and 3 units down. In this case, the lowercase 'a' in the translation indicates that the image is moved 7 units to the left, and the lowercase 'r' indicates that it is moved 3 units down.
