The point (-3, -2) is a vertex of a triangle if the triangle is translated five units to the left what is the point in the translated figure draw a graph for yourself if needed

1 answer

To translate the triangle five units to the left, we subtract 5 from the x-coordinate of the vertex (-3, -2).

Let's perform the translation:
New x-coordinate = -3 - 5 = -8
New y-coordinate = -2

Therefore, the point in the translated figure would be (-8, -2).

Here is a graph representing the original point (-3, -2) and its translation (-8, -2):
Graph:
Original point (-3, -2) - represented by a red dot
Translation (-8, -2) - represented by a blue dot
