To translate a point 5 units to the left, we subtract 5 from the x-coordinate.
So, the translated point would be (-3 - 5, -2) which simplifies to (-8, -2).
Here is a graph for reference:
The point (−3, −2)
is a vertex of a triangle. If the triangle is translated 5 units to the left, what is this point in the translated figure? Draw a graph for yourself if needed.
