Question

How would you describe the effect on the coordinates of the vertices of a figure that is translated down 4 units and to the right 3 units?(1 point)

Add 3 units to each x -value and subtract 4 units from each y -value. Add 3 units to each x -value and subtract 4 units from each y -value. Subtract 3 units from each x -value and subtract 4 units from each y -value. Subtract 3 units from each x -value and subtract 4 units from each y -value. Add 4 units to each x -value and subtract 3 units from each y -value. Add 4 units to each x -value and subtract 3 units from each y -value. Add 3 units to each x -value and add 4 units to each y -value.

Answer 1

When a figure is translated down 4 units, each y-coordinate of the vertices is decreased by 4. When it is translated to the right 3 units, each x-coordinate is increased by 3. Therefore, to apply both translations:

- For the x-coordinate: Add 3 units.
- For the y-coordinate: Subtract 4 units.

The correct description of the effect on the coordinates of the vertices is: **Add 3 units to each x-value and subtract 4 units from each y-value.**
