Question

If coordinates (−2,−5) undergo a translation vector of <2,−3> in the coordinate plane, what would the resulting coordinates be?

Answer 1

The resulting coordinates can be found by adding the components of the translation vector to the original coordinates.

adding 2 to -2 yields 0 for the x-coordinate
adding -3 to -5 yields -8 for the y-coordinate

Therefore, the resulting coordinates would be (0, -8).
