Answer 1

To find the coordinates of point \( A' \) after translating point \( A(4, 7) \) left 2 units and down 4 units, you can follow these steps:

1. **Translate left 2 units:**
- To translate left, you subtract from the x-coordinate.
- \( 4 - 2 = 2 \)

2. **Translate down 4 units:**
- To translate down, you subtract from the y-coordinate.
- \( 7 - 4 = 3 \)

Therefore, the new coordinates for point \( A' \) after the translation will be:

\[
A' (2, 3)
\]
