Answer:

translation

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information provided the type of transformation would have been a translation of one or both points. This means that either one or both points were moved. If only one point was moved it would have moved 5 units. If both were moved equally then they would have moved 2.5 units apart. Since we are not told the initial and end values of each point we cannot tell if the translation was a vertical or horizontal translation.
