Using the coordinate system, translate the point (-3, -5) using the rule x-> +2 and y->+2.

1 answer

To translate the point (-3, -5) using the given rules \( x \rightarrow +2 \) and \( y \rightarrow +2 \), you need to add 2 to the x-coordinate and 2 to the y-coordinate.

Starting point: \[ (-3, -5) \]

Applying the translation:

  • For the x-coordinate: \[ -3 + 2 = -1 \]
  • For the y-coordinate: \[ -5 + 2 = -3 \]

Thus, after translating the point (-3, -5) by the given rules, the new point is: \[ (-1, -3) \]
