To find the new coordinates after the translation, we add the components of the translation vector to the corresponding coordinates of the original point.
Original coordinates: \((-2, -5)\)
Translation vector: \(\langle 2, -3 \rangle\)
Now, we perform the translation:
- New x-coordinate = original x-coordinate + translation x-component
\(-2 + 2 = 0\)
- New y-coordinate = original y-coordinate + translation y-component
\(-5 + (-3) = -5 - 3 = -8\)
So, the resulting coordinates after the translation will be \((0, -8)\).
Therefore, the correct answer is:
**(0, −8)**
