Question

What is the image point of (5,1)(5,1) after a translation right 5 units and down 2 units?

Answer 1

After translation: (10,-1)

Explanation:

Because you first move 5 points to the right and then 2 units down.

Answer 2

(10, - 1 )

Explanation:

A translation of 5 units right means + 5 to the x- coordinate.

A translation of 2 units down means subtract 2 from the y- coordinate.

(x, y ) → (x + 5, y - 2 ) ← translation rule, thus

(5, 1 ) → (5 + 5, 1 - 2 ) → (10, - 1 )
