Answer:

B: (x, y) --> (x + 4, y - 3)

Explanation:

the shape DEF went to the right along the x axis wich increased x and then went down the y axis or decreased y to make D'E'F'

some good way to remember these translations and orders are...
- x is first when plotting points, then y (x, y)
- x increases going right, and decreases going left, as well as y increasing going up, then decreasing going down

BONUS FACT:
the symbol ( ' ) is called a prime when refering to transformations and geometry ((as in D' is pronounced D prime))
