Answer 1

To translate a point, you add the translation values to the coordinates of the point. The translation given is 3 units to the right and 2 units down.

1. For the point \((-4, 2)\):

   • Move 3 units to the right: \(-4 + 3 = -1\)
   • Move 2 units down: \(2 - 2 = 0\)

   So, the new point for \((-4, 2)\) is \((-1, 0)\).

2. For the point \((-4, 6)\):

   • Move 3 units to the right: \(-4 + 3 = -1\)
   • Move 2 units down: \(6 - 2 = 4\)

   So, the new point for \((-4, 6)\) is \((-1, 4)\).

The new points on the translated line are:

• The new point for \((-4, 2)\) is: \((-1, 0)\).
• The new point for \((-4, 6)\) is: \((-1, 4)\).
