To express the transformation mathematically, we can think of each point on the grid as having coordinates \((x, y)\).
When the points are moved 4 units to the left, we subtract 4 from the x-coordinate. When the points are moved 2 units down, we subtract 2 from the y-coordinate.
Thus, the transformation can be represented as:
\[
(x, y) \rightarrow (x - 4, y - 2)
\]
This means that for any original point \((x, y)\), the new coordinates after the transformation would be \((x - 4, y - 2)\).
When the points are moved 4 units to the left, we subtract 4 from the x-coordinate. When the points are moved 2 units down, we subtract 2 from the y-coordinate.
Thus, the transformation can be represented as:
\[
(x, y) \rightarrow (x - 4, y - 2)
\]
This means that for any original point \((x, y)\), the new coordinates after the transformation would be \((x - 4, y - 2)\).
