Answer:

(3,1)

Explanation:

(x+ 6, y -4)

The x tells us the movements are right or left. Right would be a positive movement and left would be a negative movement.

The y tells us the movements are up or down. Up would be a positive movement and down would be a negative movement.

D is at the point ( -3,5)

(x + 6, y -4) Is telling us that from the point of D, move right 6 spaces and down 4 spaces. You will know be at the point (3,1).

The calculated y-coordinate of point D after the translation is 1

How to determine the y-coordinate of point D after a translation

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

The triangle

Where, we have

D = (-2.5, 5)

Also, we have the translation to be

(x, y) = (x + 6, y - 4)

Substitute the known values into the equation

D' = (-2.5 + 6, 5 - 4)

Evaluate

D' = (3.5, 1)

Hence, the y-coordinate of point D after a translation is 1
