According to the problem, the transformation is a translation of 3 units to the right, which means we have to add 3 to x-values of the vertices.


\begin{gathered} U(-9,3)\rightarrow U^(\prime)(-9+3,3)\rightarrow U^(\prime)(-6,3) \\ T(0,3)\rightarrow T^(\prime)(0+3,3)\rightarrow T^(\prime)(3,3) \\ S(0,-6)\rightarrow S^(\prime)(0+3,-6)\rightarrow S^(\prime)(3,-6) \\ R(-9,-6)\rightarrow R^(\prime)(-9+3,-6)\rightarrow R^(\prime)(-6,-6) \end{gathered}

Once, we have the vertices, we can draw the new figure.
