Answer:

no you don't subtract coordinates

they are telling you after certain transformations triangle A will land on Triangle B.The picture is telling to translate triangle B 5 units to the right to have both triangles ready for the reflection that will land triangle B onto Triangle A

Answer:

c = -6

d = 2

Explanation:

After reflection about the x-axis:

A --> A'

(2,3) --> (2,-3)

(4,3) --> (4,-3)

(2,6) --> (2,-6)

After translation:

(2 + c, -6 + d) --> (-4, -4)

2+c = -4

c = -6

-6+d = -4

d = 2
