A figure is translated six units to the left and two units down. Which rule represents this translation?

(x,y) → (x+6, y + 2)
(x,y) → (x+6,y 2)
(x, y) → (x-6, y + 2)
(x, y) → (x-6, y-2)​

Answer:

(x, y) → (x-6, y-2)​

Explanation:

When you translate to the left, you are subtracting.

When you translate downwards, you are also subtracting.

The same thing goes for the other way around!!

When you translate to the right, you are adding.

When you translate upwards, you are also adding.

Hope this helps!! :)
