Question

a point is translated on the coordinate plane from (4, -1) to (4,2). journey wants to describe the the translation. which description best fits the translation? (1 point)
the point is translated 3 units down
the point is translated 3 units up
the point is translated 3 units right
the point is translated 3 units left

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze y - coordinate change

The y - coordinate changes from - 1 to 2. Calculate 2-( - 1)=3.

Step2: Determine translation direction

Since the y - coordinate increases, the point moves up.

Answer:

The point is translated 3 units up.
