Question

What is the image for the point (5,5) and the rule (x+2, y-3)? (x, y)A. (7, 2)B. (7, -4)C. (3, 2)

Answer 1

We have the original point: (5,5).

And the rule for the transformation is: (x+2,y-3).

What this rule is telling us is to add 2 to the x coordinate of the original point, and also subtract 3 from the y coordinate of the original point. This way we will find the new point called "image".

So we apply the rule to the original point:

`(5,5)\longrightarrow(5+2,5-3)`

As you can see, we follow the rule of adding 2 to the x coordinate and subtracting 3 from the y coordinate. The result is:

`(5,5)\longrightarrow(7,2)`

Answer: The image point is (7,2), option A.
