To translate a figure 3 units to the left, we subtract 3 from the x-coordinates of all the vertices.
The x-coordinate of vertex H is -1 - 3 = -4.
The x-coordinate of vertex I is -7 - 3 = -10.
The x-coordinate of vertex J is 2 - 3 = -1.
The x-coordinate of vertex K is -6 - 3 = -9.
The x-coordinate of vertex L is -6 - 3 = -9.
Therefore, the vertex in the translated figure is (-10, y), where y is the y-coordinate of vertex I.
Among the given options, the vertex (-7, 4) is the only one with x-coordinate -10. Therefore, the answer is (−7, 4).
