Given:

The graph of a translation. X'Y' is a translation of XY.

To find:

The rule of the translation.

Solution:

Let the rule of the translation be


(x,y)\to (x+a,y+b) ...(i)

So, we need to find the value of a and b.

From the given graph, it is clear that X(-4,-9) and X'(-1,0).

Using (i), the image of X(-4,-9) is


X(-4,-9)\to X'(-4+a,-9+b)

We have, X'(-1,0). So,


X'(-4+a,-9+b)=X'(-1,0)

On comparing both sides, we get


-4+a=-1


a=-1+4


a=3

And,


-9+b=0


b=9

So, the missing values in the rule of the translation are 3 and 9 respectively.

Therefore, the rule of translation is
(x,y)\to (x+3,y+9).
