Answer:

Left 6 up 4:

(x, y) → (x - 6, y + 4)

Right 3, down 7

(x, y) → (x + 3, y - 7)

Explanation:

Moving right means moving positively along the x-axis ⇒ add units to the x-coordinate.

Moving left means moving negatively along the x-axis ⇒ subtract units from the x-coordinate.

Moving up means moving positively along the y-axis ⇒ add units to the y-coordinate.

Moving down means moving negatively along the y-axis ⇒ subtract units from the y-coordinate.

Left 6 up 4:

(x, y) → (x - 6, y + 4)

Right 3, down 7

(x, y) → (x + 3, y - 7)
