To find the new coordinates of point \( N' \) after the translation of point \( N(0, -6) \), we need to apply the given transformations:

  1. Translate up 5 units: This means we add 5 to the y-coordinate.
  2. Translate left 2 units: This means we subtract 2 from the x-coordinate.

Starting with point \( N(0, -6) \):

  1. For the y-coordinate: \[-6 + 5 = -1\]

  2. For the x-coordinate: \[0 - 2 = -2\]

Thus, the new coordinates for point \( N' \) are \((-2, -1)\).

So the correct response is:
\((-2, -1)\)
