Question

point p(1, 5) is the image of p(-3, 1) under a translation. determine the translation. use non - negative numbers. a translation by units to the right/left and units up/down

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate horizontal translation

Find the difference in x - coordinates. $x_{P'} - x_{P}=1-(-3)=4$. Since the result is positive, it is a translation to the right.

Step2: Calculate vertical translation

Find the difference in y - coordinates. $y_{P'} - y_{P}=5 - 1=4$. Since the result is positive, it is a translation up.

Answer:

A translation by 4 units to the right and 4 units up.
