Triangle MNO is translated up 5 units and left 2 units. Point N is located at (0,-6). What are the coordinates of N'? (1 point)

(-2,-11)

(-2,-1)

(2,-1)

(5,-8)

1 answer

To find the new coordinates of point \( N' \) after triangle MNO is translated, we start with the coordinates of point \( N \) which are \( (0, -6) \).

Translation Up 5 Units:

  • To translate a point up, we add to the y-coordinate. So: \[ y = -6 + 5 = -1 \]

Translation Left 2 Units:

  • To translate a point left, we subtract from the x-coordinate. So: \[ x = 0 - 2 = -2 \]

Now, we combine these new coordinates:

The new coordinates of point \( N' \) are \( (-2, -1) \).

Thus, the answer is \((-2, -1)\).
