Answer:

Option A: T(-3, -4)

Explanation:

For a general point (x, y), if we apply the transformation:

T(a, b)

at that point, the new point that we will get is:

T(a,b)[ (x, y) ] = (x + a, y + b)

Notice that if w take the difference between the new point (x + a, y + b) and the original point (x, y)

we get:

(x + a, y + b) - (x, y) = (x + a - x, y + b y) = (a, b)

These are x-value and y-value that describe our transformation T(a, b).

Then if we know that the original point is B (-2, 1)

and the transformed point is B'( -5, -3)

We can just take the difference to get:

(-5, -3) - (-2, 1) = (-5 - (-2), -3 - 1) = (-5 + 2, -4) = (-3, -4)

Then the transformation applied is:

T(-3, -4)

The correct option is A.
