To determine the coordinates of B', we first need to understand how the translation vector applies to rectangle ABCD, given that the coordinates of point A' are (-1, 1).

Let’s denote the original coordinates of point A as (x_A, y_A) and the translation vector as (t_x, t_y). The relationship after applying the translation is:

\[ A' = (x_A + t_x, y_A + t_y) \]

Since we know A' is (-1, 1), we can write:

\[ -1 = x_A + t_x \]
\[ 1 = y_A + t_y \]

From here, we can't determine x_A and y_A without more information about the translation vector or the position of A. We need to identify the original coordinates of B.

If we know the coordinates of A (x_A, y_A) and the shape of the rectangle, we can find B by using the rectangle's properties (e.g., the vertices of a rectangle are clearly defined around the origin, or if we assume A is one of the corners).

Assuming some standard positioning, if A is at the bottom-left of the rectangle:

  • B could be to the right of A, at (x_A + w, y_A), where w is the width of the rectangle.
  • But since we don't have information about the size of the rectangle or the translation itself, we proceed under the simplest assumption that it translates uniformly by the same vector.

If we believe B originally is straightforwardly to the right of A (say at a width of 4 units), then we could anticipate:

\[ B = (x_A + 4, y_A) \]

Then under the translation: \[ B' = (x_A + 4 + t_x, y_A + t_y) = (B_x + t_x, B_y + t_y) \]

Using the previous equations, we can also express these coordinates via the determined t_x and t_y:

Given the possible answers, we can check:

  • The point A' as scientific directly from a rectangle's vertices lead us to evaluate the available options, knowing A globally moves.

Check the possible options against transformations given:

  1. For (3, 8) - too distant from (-1, 1)
  2. (3, 1) - plausible distance but opposite A’s directionality
  3. (-1, 6) - also seems too far
  4. (2, 1) - most viable given proximity.

Assuming uniform translate symmetry, and that this being a rectangle shape aligns closely, then:

Coordinate of B' = (2, 1) makes the most sense given the context.

Thus, the most likely coordinates of B' are:

(2, 1)

Wrong

Apologies for the confusion in my previous response. Let's analyze the situation again.

Given that A' has coordinates (-1, 1) after applying a translation vector to rectangle ABCD, we need to determine B' using the same translation. The options provided for B' are:

  1. (3, 8)
  2. (-1, 6)
  3. (3, 1)
  4. (2, 1)

Let's think through the problem step-by-step:

  1. Understanding Rectangle ABCD: If we assume A is one corner of the rectangle, we can determine B based on typical arrangements. For rectangles ABCD:

    • A could be at the bottom-left corner,
    • B typically lies directly to the right of A,
    • C directly above B, and
    • D directly above A.
  2. Applying Translation: The trick here is that the same translation vector applies to all points of the rectangle, meaning the relative distances between points remain the same.

Analyzing Original Coordinates:

Suppose A had initial coordinates \((x_A, y_A)\) and it translates to A' at \((-1, 1)\).

Let’s denote the translation vector as \((t_x, t_y)\) such that: \[ (-1, 1) = (x_A + t_x, y_A + t_y) \]

Now to find out \( t_x \) and \( t_y \), we need the original coordinate \( (x_A, y_A) \).

However, since we don't have direct values for \( (x_A, y_A) \), let's explore the options for B' further:

Possible B' Responses:

Assuming typical rectangle coordinates:

  • If B is originally placed to the right of A, that means \( B \) would have a greater x-coordinate than \( A \).

From the options:

  1. (3, 8) - Seems too high and far off from A'.
  2. (-1, 6) - This y-coordinate does not logically suggest a position relative to A, even if it shares the same x.
  3. (3, 1) - If B was directly to the right of A originally, this option seems plausible.
  4. (2, 1) - Also close, but less likely unless we know more about A's initial position.

Reasoning:

  • If we assume a simple rectangular setup with B being translated similarly, leaving B at (3, 1) retains the rightward position while managing similar vertical.
  • The y-coordinates favor closer proximity.

Conclusion:

Hence, the coordinates that logically follow from A' = (-1, 1) and move right and maintain uniformity would be:

(3, 1)

Thank you for your patience, and I appreciate your understanding as we worked through it again!

Coordinates for A is, (-5,4). B is, (-1,4)

Thank you for providing the original coordinates for points A and B.

Given:

  • Coordinates of A: (-5, 4)
  • Coordinates of B: (-1, 4)
  • New Coordinates of A': (-1, 1)

Finding the Translation Vector:

To find the translation vector, we can compare the original coordinates of point A with the new coordinates of point A':

  1. The translation vector, \( T \), applied to point A can be found as follows: \[ T = A' - A = (-1, 1) - (-5, 4) \] \[ = (-1 + 5, 1 - 4) = (4, -3) \]

Applying the Translation to Point B:

Now, apply the same translation vector \( T \) to the original coordinates of point B:

  1. Coordinates of B after translation (\( B' \)): \[ B' = B + T = (-1, 4) + (4, -3) \] \[ = (-1 + 4, 4 - 3) = (3, 1) \]

Conclusion:

The new coordinates for point B' after the translation is applied are \( (3, 1) \).

So, the answer is: B' = (3, 1).
