what transformation does the rule represent ?

a translation 5 units to the right
a translation units up

The rule you've mentioned seems to describe two separate transformations:

  1. A translation 5 units to the right: This means that the x-coordinate of each point will increase by 5. If you have a point (x, y), after this translation, it will move to (x + 5, y).

  2. A translation units up: It seems there might be a missing numerical value here. Assuming it is meant to be "a translation k units up," this means that the y-coordinate of each point will increase by some value k. If you have a point (x, y), after this translation, it will move to (x, y + k).

If you were to combine these two transformations into a single transformation rule, it would be:

  • From point (x, y) to (x + 5, y + k).

If you clarify what the specific numerical value for "units up" is, I can provide a more precise transformation description!
