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

  1. Start with the original coordinates: (-2, -5).
  2. Apply the translation vector <2, -3>:
    • For the x-coordinate: -2 + 2 = 0
    • For the y-coordinate: -5 + (-3) = -5 - 3 = -8

So, the new coordinates after the translation are (0, -8).

The correct response is: (0,−8)
