Question

If point E is translated 2 units right and 4 units up, what are the coordinates of E?

a) (−6,−20)

b) (−6,−17)

c) (−4,−17)

d) (−4,−20)

Answer 1

The coordinates of point E after being translated 2 units right and 4 units up are (-4,-20).

Step-by-step explanation:

To translate a point, we add the given amount to the x-coordinate to move it right and add the given amount to the y-coordinate to move it up. In this case, point E is translated 2 units right and 4 units up. Therefore, the new coordinates of E would be (x+2, y+4).

The original coordinates of E are (x, y). So, the new coordinates can be written as (x+2, y+4).

Therefore, the answer is d) (-4,-20).
