Question

what is the image point of (-5,3) after a translation left 3 units and down 1 unit? answer attempt 1 out of 3

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate new x - coordinate

Moving left 3 units means subtracting 3 from the x - coordinate. The original x - coordinate is - 5. So, $x=-5 - 3=-8$.

Step2: Calculate new y - coordinate

Moving down 1 unit means subtracting 1 from the y - coordinate. The original y - coordinate is 3. So, $y = 3-1=2$.

Answer:

$(-8,2)$
