Question

Point M (4,3) is translated according tot he rule (x,y) > (x+2,y-5). What are the coordinates of M

Answer 1

To translate a point according to a rule, we need to apply the rule to each coordinate separately.

For point M(4,3), the rule is (x,y) > (x+2,y-5).

So, applying the rule to the x-coordinate of M, we get:

x + 2 = 4 + 2 = 6

And applying the rule to the y-coordinate of M, we get:

y - 5 = 3 - 5 = -2

Therefore, the translated point is M'(6,-2).
