To translate a point left or right, we add or subtract from the x-coordinate, and to translate a point up or down, we add or subtract from the y-coordinate.
In the given problem, A(6,8) is translated left 2 and down 6. To translate A, we subtract 2 from the x-coordinate and subtract 6 from the y-coordinate.
Therefore, the coordinate points for A' are:
x-coordinate: 6 - 2 = 4
y-coordinate: 8 - 6 = 2
Thus, A' is (4,2).
What are the coordinate points for A' if A (6,8) after being translated left 2 and down 6
