Answer:
(-1,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:
A coordinate is written like (x,y). When you translate left/right, you are moving across the x axis and when you translate up/down, you are moving across the y axis. Using this, we know that translating left 6 would only change the x value.

Translating left 6 means you’re subtracting 6, and 5-6=-1

Therefore, the final coordinate would be (-1,-4)

Answer:

(-1 , -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The left & right is controlled by the "x" in the coordinate (x , y). When you translate to the left 6, it means that you subtract 6.

Subtract 6 from the number in the x-coordinate (5):

(5 (-6), -4)

(-1 , -4)

Your new point is (-1 , -4).
