A shape on a grid has these points = H: (-3, 6) L: (-5, 4) K: (-4, 1) J: (-1, 1) I: (-1, 4)

Translate the figure HIJKL 3 units to the left. And then what would be a vertex in the translated figure?

To translate the figure HIJKL 3 units to the left, we need to subtract 3 from the x-coordinate of each point.

For H(-3, 6):
The new coordinates will be: (-3 - 3, 6) = (-6, 6)

For L(-5, 4):
The new coordinates will be: (-5 - 3, 4) = (-8, 4)

For K(-4, 1):
The new coordinates will be: (-4 - 3, 1) = (-7, 1)

For J(-1, 1):
The new coordinates will be: (-1 - 3, 1) = (-4, 1)

For I(-1, 4):
The new coordinates will be: (-1 - 3, 4) = (-4, 4)

So, one vertex in the translated figure is (-4, 4).
pick between =
A) (-7, 4)
B) (2, 4)
C) (-1, -2)
D) (-6, 6)
The correct vertex in the translated figure is C) (-1, -2).
