Question

What is the image point of (−8,−9) after a translation left 3 units and down 5 units?

Answer 1

(-11, -14)

X:
left right translation effect the x cord so -8 in this situation
moving left is going further from zero in the negative direction so it is subtraction
-8 - 3 = -11

Y:
up down translation effect the y cord so -9 in this situation
moving down is also moving further from from zero in the negative direction making it subtraction
-9 - 5 = -14

answer: (-11, -14)

Answer 2

(-11, -14)

Explanation:

Point (-8, -9)

Translation left 3 units

(-8, -9) → (-11, -9)

Down 5 units

(-11, -9) → (-11, -14)

So, the final point will be at (-11, -14)
