Question

Slide and transformation

Answer 1

The rule that describes this transformation is (x - 3, y + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The points of the trapezoid are

M; (-3, -1),

N; (-4, 3),

P; (1, 3), and

Q; (-1, -1).

Step 2:

To translate the points to 3 units on the left, we subtract the x coordinate by 3 because it is moved to the left. So x becomes x - 3.

In order to translate the points to 1 unit up, we add 1 to the y coordinate as it is moved in the positive direction of y. So y becomes y + 1.

Combining these we get (x, y) becomes (x - 3, y + 1).
