Question

ERRE
A rectangle on a coordinate plane is translated 5 units up and 3 units to the left. Which rule describes the translation?
O(x,y) - (x + 5, y-3)
(x,y) - (x + 5, y + 3)
O (x, y) - (x-3, y + 5)
O(x, y) - (x + 3, y + 5)

Answer 1

"translated 5 units up" means y becomes y+5. We just add 5 to whatever the y coordinate is to shift the point 5 units up.

To shift 3 units left, we subtract 3 from whatever the x coordinate value is. So we go from x to x-3.

Put this together and the translation rule is $(x,y) \to (x-3, y+5)$

Answer: Choice C
