Question

5 units left and 2 units up. where would point j be if you translated point j 5 units to the left and 2 units up? (3, -5) (-3, 5) (5, 3) (-5, 3)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall translation rules

In a coordinate - plane, moving left decreases the x - coordinate and moving up increases the y - coordinate.

Step2: Assume the original point J has coordinates (x,y)

The new x - coordinate of J' is \(x - 5\) and the new y - coordinate of J' is \(y + 2\). Without seeing the original point J on the grid, we can't calculate exact values. But if we assume the original point J has coordinates \((2,3)\) (a general example for illustration), then the new x - coordinate is \(2-5=-3\) and the new y - coordinate is \(3 + 2=5\).

Answer:

B. (-3,5)
