Question

A triangle on a coordinate plane is translated according to the rule T–3, 5(x, y). Which is another way to write this rule?

(x, y) → (x – 3, y + 5)
(x, y) → (x – 3, y – 5)
(x, y) → (x + 3, y – 5)
(x, y) → (x + 3, y + 5)

Answer 1

(x, y) → (x − 3, y + 5)

A translation T–3,5 shifts x by −3 and y by +5, so add −3 to x and +5 to y.
