Question

If a translation maps point (3, 2) to (4, 5), then what is the image of the point (O. O)?

Answer 1

If a point is translated from (3, 2) to (4, 5) the translation rule is:

(x + 1, y + 3)

^^^How I found this rule:

Here is how the rule for translation is written: (x + a, y + b)...

3 + a = 4

3 - 3 + a = 4 - 3

a =  1

2 + b = 5

2 - 2 + b = 5 - 2

b = 3

To apply this rule to the point (0, 0) simply plug in the x and y to the transformation equation like so...

(0 + 1, 0 + 3)

(1, 3)

Hope this helped!
