Answer:

Reflection

Explanation:

A rotation would be to rotate a figure around the origin

A reflection would be to reflect the figure around one of the axes.

A translation would be to move a figure a certain amount of units.

Since A and A' are 2 units away from the y-axis, and C, B, B', and C' are all one unit away from the y-axis, this could not be a translation because the position of A'B'C' is not the same position of ABC.

It could not be a rotation around the origin or any point because it would result the figure in either Quadrant 2 or 3, and in the one occasion it would be in Quadrant 1, the figure cannot be in that position.

This reveals only one option, that which is a reflection. A reflection about the x-axis would not make sense, since it would result in Quadrant 3, so a reflection around the y-axis would make the most sense.

The data we have above also accounts for a reflection, since all points are a certain distant away from the y-axis.
