Answer 1

When a figure is translated down 4 units and to the right 3 units, the correct way to describe the effect on the coordinates of the vertices is:

**Add 3 units to each x-value and subtract 4 units from each y-value.**

So, for each point (x, y) in the figure, the new coordinates would be (x + 3, y - 4).
