coordinates of A after the translation.

1. Give the rule for translating a point 4 units left and 8 units up. (2 points)

Answer 1

(3, 13)

Explanation:

Original coordinates of A

• A = (7, 5)

After translating left 4 units

• A' = (7 - 4, 5)
• A' = (3, 5)

After translating up 8 units

• A'' = (3, 5 + 8)
• A'' = (3, 13)
