To describe the effect on the coordinates of the vertices of a figure that is translated down 4 units and to the right 3 units, we need to consider the effects of each translation separately:
- Translating down 4 units means we need to subtract 4 from the y-coordinate of each vertex.
- Translating to the right 3 units means we need to add 3 to the x-coordinate of each vertex.
Putting this together, the correct transformation can be expressed as:
- For the x-coordinates: Add 3
- For the y-coordinates: Subtract 4
Therefore, the correct response is: Add 3 units to each x-value and subtract 4 units from each y-value.
