Question

Given the ordered pairs (5,3), (-4, 2) and (-2,-6)

perform the translation in the coordinate plane: 2 units
left and 4 units up and list the new points.

Answer 1

Answer: ( -2, 4 )

Reason:
The x value is horizontal. Thus anything that says left or right is talking about the x value.
The x value is listed first on the point
(x, y)
When the x value goes left it is negative
When it goes right it is positive

The y value is vertical
It is listed last on the point (x , y)
When it goes up it is positive
When it goes down it is negative

Hope this helps
