Translate the figure HIJKL 3 units to the left. Which of the following would be a vertex in the translated figure?

Question

(-7, 4)
(2, 4)
(-6, 6)
(-1, -2)

Answer 1

To translate a figure 3 units to the left, we need to subtract 3 from the x-coordinate of each vertex.

For the given options:
1) (-7, 4) - This point would result from translating the original point (0, 4) 3 units to the left. This is not a vertex in the translated figure.
2) (2, 4) - This point would result from translating the original point (5, 4) 3 units to the left. This is not a vertex in the translated figure.
3) (-6, 6) - This point would result from translating the original point (-3, 6) 3 units to the left. This is a vertex in the translated figure.
4) (-1, -2) - This point would result from translating the original point (2, -2) 3 units to the left. This is not a vertex in the translated figure.

Therefore, the only vertex in the translated figure is (-6, 6).
