Question

3 units left and 9 units down. determine where x would be if you translated x 3 units to the left and 9 units down. (-10, 2) (-4, 4) (-1, 5) (-4, -5)

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the original coordinates of X

Assume the original coordinates of point X are \((x,y)\). From the grid (not fully visible but assuming standard coordinate - plane rules), if we assume the original \(x\) - coordinate of \(X\) is \(- 1\) and the original \(y\) - coordinate of \(X\) is \(4\).

Step2: Apply the horizontal translation

Moving 3 units to the left means subtracting 3 from the \(x\) - coordinate. So the new \(x\) - coordinate \(x'=x - 3=-1-3=-4\).

Step3: Apply the vertical translation

Moving 9 units down means subtracting 9 from the \(y\) - coordinate. So the new \(y\) - coordinate \(y'=y - 9=4 - 9=-5\).

Answer:

\((-4,-5)\)
