To find the resulting coordinates after applying the translation vector <2,−3> to the initial coordinates (−2,−5), you need to add the corresponding components of the translation vector to the coordinates.

  1. Add the x-coordinates: \(-2 + 2 = 0\)

  2. Add the y-coordinates: \(-5 + (-3) = -5 - 3 = -8\)

Thus, the resulting coordinates after the translation are (0, −8).

So, the correct response is: (0,−8)
