Question

Where is the point (-3,1) located when it is translated four units left and two units up 

Answer 1

(-7, 3)

Explanation:

Original point: (-3, 1)

So original x = -3
4 units left means x coordinate is decreased by 4
So, new x-coordinate = -3 - 4 = -7

Original y coordinate = 1
2 units up means y coordinate increases by 1
So new y-coordinate = 1 + 2 = 3

Translated point = (-7, 3)
