Question

If the triangle on the grid below is translated by using the (x,y) -> (x+5, y-2) rule, what will be the coordinates of B'?
(–2, 0)
(0, –2)
(5, –7)
(5, –2)

Answer 1

we know that
the coordinates of point B ( -5,0)

the translation has the following rule
(x,y)--------> (x+5, y-2)
so
(-5,0)-----> (-5+5,0-2)-----> (0,-2)

the answer is
(0, –2) 

Answer 2

Answer:

$B(-5,0)\rightarrow B'(0,-2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram, B has coordinates $(-5,0)$.

We want to find the coordinates of B' after a translation by the rule;

$(x,y)\rightarrow(x+5,y-2)$,

We apply the rule to obtain;

$B(-5,0)\rightarrow B'(-5+5,0-2)$,

This implies that;

$B(-5,0)\rightarrow B'(0,-2)$

Therefore the correct answer is B
