To translate the point \( P \) with coordinates \( P = (4, 6) \) 6 units down and 2 units to the right, we will follow these steps:
1. **Translate 6 units down**: This means we subtract 6 from the y-coordinate.
\[
y' = 6 - 6 = 0
\]
2. **Translate 2 units to the right**: This means we add 2 to the x-coordinate.
\[
x' = 4 + 2 = 6
\]
Putting these two translations together, the new coordinates for \( P' \) are:
\[
P' = (x', y') = (6, 0)
\]
Thus, the coordinates of \( P' \) are \( (6, 0) \).
1. **Translate 6 units down**: This means we subtract 6 from the y-coordinate.
\[
y' = 6 - 6 = 0
\]
2. **Translate 2 units to the right**: This means we add 2 to the x-coordinate.
\[
x' = 4 + 2 = 6
\]
Putting these two translations together, the new coordinates for \( P' \) are:
\[
P' = (x', y') = (6, 0)
\]
Thus, the coordinates of \( P' \) are \( (6, 0) \).
