To translate the line segment 3 units to the left and 5 units down, we need to subtract 3 from the x-coordinate and subtract 5 from the y-coordinate of each endpoint.
The endpoints of the translated line segment would be:
(-2 - 3, 7 - 5) = (-5, 2) and (0 - 3, 3 - 5) = (-3, -2)
Therefore, the correct answer is option A:
(-5, 2) and (-3, -2)
Demonstrate the translation of a line segment of 3 units to the left and 5 units down if the endpoints of the line segment are (−2, 7) and (0, 3) .(1 point)
