To translate the vertices of triangle \(ABC\) by the transformation \(T(-3, -5)\), you need to subtract 3 from the x-coordinates and 5 from the y-coordinates of each vertex.

The original vertices of triangle \(ABC\) are:

  • \(A(4, -2)\)
  • \(B(-1, -3)\)
  • \(C(2, 1)\)

Let's apply the translation to each vertex:

  1. For vertex \(A(4, -2)\): \[ A' = (4 - 3, -2 - 5) = (1, -7) \]

  2. For vertex \(B(-1, -3)\): \[ B' = (-1 - 3, -3 - 5) = (-4, -8) \]

  3. For vertex \(C(2, 1)\): \[ C' = (2 - 3, 1 - 5) = (-1, -4) \]

Now, let's summarize the vertices of triangle \(A'B'C'\):

  • \(A' = (1, -7)\)
  • \(B' = (-4, -8)\)
  • \(C' = (-1, -4)\)

Thus, the vertices of triangle \(A'B'C'\) are:

  • \(A' (1, -7)\)
  • \(B' (-4, -8)\)
  • \(C' (-1, -4)\)

In conclusion:

  • \(A' = (1, -7)\)
  • \(B' = (-4, -8)\)
  • \(C' = (-1, -4)\)
