To translate the line containing the points (2, 5) and (4, 7) up 4 units and to the left 4 units, we will perform the following calculations:

  1. Translate each point up by 4 units: This means we add 4 to the y-coordinate of each point.
  2. Translate each point left by 4 units: This means we subtract 4 from the x-coordinate of each point.

Let's apply these transformations to the points one by one:

For the point (2, 5):

  • Move up 4 units: \(5 + 4 = 9\)
  • Move left 4 units: \(2 - 4 = -2\)
  • New point: \((-2, 9)\)

For the point (4, 7):

  • Move up 4 units: \(7 + 4 = 11\)
  • Move left 4 units: \(4 - 4 = 0\)
  • New point: \((0, 11)\)

After translation, the new points are:

  • (-2, 9) and (0, 11)

The correct response is: (−2, 9) and (0, 11) left parenthesis negative 2 comma 9 right parenthesis and left parenthesis 0 comma 11 right parenthesis
