Question

I need help in describing the type of transformations on the problem

Answer 1

A transformation takes a set of points called the pre-image and transform them into a new set called the image. The first transformation in this problem is the following:

`(x,y)\rightarrow(x+2,y)`

This transformation implies adding 2 to the x-value of each of the point in the pre-image. By doing so, these points are moved two units to the right which means that the 1st transformation is a translation.

The second transformation is:

`(x,y)\rightarrow(x,-y)`

This one implies multiplying each y-value by -1. This basically means that the transformation reflects the points about the x-axis.

Then the answers are:

1st Translation of 2 units to the right

2nd Reflcetion about the x-axis
