Question

Which rule describes the translation below?

On a coordinate plane, triangle S T U is shifted 3 units down and 5 units to the left to form triangle S prime T prime U prime.
(x, y) right-arrow (x minus 5, y minus 3)
(x, y) right-arrow (x + 5, y + 3)
(x, y) right-arrow (x minus 3, y minus 5)
(x, y) right-arrow (x + 3, y + 5)

Answer 1

Answer: A, (x, y) right-arrow (x minus 5, y minus 3).

Step-by-step explanation: I got the question right on the quiz.

Answer 2

(x, y) right-arrow (x minus 5, y minus 3)

Explanation:

we know that

The translation of the pre-image STU to the image ST'U' is 3 units down and 5 units to the left

That means

3 units down -----> y-3

5 units to the left -----> x-5

therefore

The rule of the translation is

(x,y) -----> (x-5,y-3)
