To translate the triangle, we need to add 4 to the x-coordinates and subtract 2 from the y-coordinates of each vertex.

  1. Vertex (4, 3):

    • New x-coordinate: \(4 + 4 = 8\)
    • New y-coordinate: \(3 - 2 = 1\)
    • New vertex: (8, 1)
  2. Vertex (8, 3):

    • New x-coordinate: \(8 + 4 = 12\)
    • New y-coordinate: \(3 - 2 = 1\)
    • New vertex: (12, 1)
  3. Vertex (7, 5):

    • New x-coordinate: \(7 + 4 = 11\)
    • New y-coordinate: \(5 - 2 = 3\)
    • New vertex: (11, 3)

So the translated vertices are (8, 1), (12, 1), and (11, 3).

The correct response is: (8, 1), (12, 1), and (11, 3) \( \text{(8, 1), (12, 1), and (11, 3)} \)
