Question

The image point of A after a translation left 3 units and down 3 units is the pointB(-8, -3). Determine the coordinates of the pre-image point A.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Image point or Output = (-8,-3)

translation left 3 units and down 3 units

Pre-image or Input=?

We can determine the pre-image point A by:

Pre-image,A =(-8+3,-3+3)

Simplify

Pre-image = (-5, 0)

Therefore, the pre-image is A(-5, 0).

It can be shown on the graph below:
