witch one is right

Use the image to answer the question.

A coordinate plane's x-axis ranges from negative 12 to 1 and its y-axis ranges from negative 6 to 7, both by 1-unit increments. 6 points are marked and plotted forming 2 triangles, 1 solid and 1 dotted.

What kind of translation has been made to triangle ABC ?

To determine the translation of triangle ABC, we would need to analyze the coordinates of the triangle's vertices before and after the translation.

As I cannot view images, I'm unable to identify the exact translation that has been made. However, based on the answer choices given, you can find the correct response by checking the coordinates of triangle ABC before and after the translation.

  1. If the x-coordinates of the triangle have increased by a certain amount and the y-coordinates have decreased, that would signify a translation to the right and down.
  2. If the x-coordinates have decreased and the y-coordinates increased, then it would be a translation to the left and up.
  3. The amount of change in the x-coordinates will tell you how many units it was translated horizontally (right or left) while the change in the y-coordinates will tell you how many units it was translated vertically (up or down).

Please check the coordinates of triangle ABC before and after the transformation to select the correct option.
