Question

For the pair of coordinates, describe the translation rule: A(-2,-6) to A'(-5, -9).

A. (x-3), (y + 3)
B. (x-3), (y - 3)
C. (x + 3), (y + 3)
D. (x + 3), (y - 3)

Answer 1

B

Step-by-step explanation:

given

A (- 2, - 6 ) to A' (- 5, - 9 )

to go from - 2 to - 5 in the x- direction , means subtract 3 from the original x- coordinate

to go from - 6 to - 9 in the y- direction , means subtract 3 from the original y- coordinate , that is

the translation rule is

(x, y ) → (x - 3, y - 3 )

Answer 2

The translation rule for the pair of coordinates A(-2,-6) to A'(-5,-9) is (x-3), (y-3).

Step-by-step explanation:

The translation rule for the pair of coordinates A(-2,-6) to A'(-5,-9) is (x-3), (y-3). The x-coordinate of point A is translated 3 units to the left to become the x-coordinate of point A'. Similarly, the y-coordinate of point A is translated 3 units downwards to become the y-coordinate of point A'.
