Question

Point k lies at (-3,4) Image

Answer 1

`k(x,y) --> k'(x,y-7)`

Explanation:

Given

`k = (-3,4)`

Translation: 7 units down

Required

Determine the rule to produce k'

When an (x,y) coordinate is translated down by h units, the resulting point is:

(x,y) --> (x, y - h)

In this case:

`h = 7`

So, we have:

`k(x,y) --> k'(x,y-7)`

Hence, option A answers the question.

Solving further to determine the coordinates of k'.

`k = (-3,4)`

`k' = (-3,4-7)`

`k' = (-3,-3)`
