To translate the point P(3, –6) left by 4 units, you subtract 4 from the x-coordinate. To translate it down by 6 units, you subtract 6 from the y-coordinate.
Starting with P(3, –6):
- Move left 4 units: \( 3 - 4 = -1 \)
- Move down 6 units: \( -6 - 6 = -12 \)
So, the new coordinates of the image point after the translation are (-1, -12).
