Given:
Point A with coordinates: (4, 2) is in the first quadrant.
The point is translated to the rule (x, y) --> (x+1, y-5)
Now, point A becomes (4+1, 2-5) = (5, -3) which is now in quadrant 4.
The point is reflected across the y-axis. Now, it is in the third quadrant.
The question is asking you to come up with a real-life example of something that can be represented as 15+ c= 17.50. If I were you I would do sales tax. You bought an item with a 15 dollar price tag, but when you go to check out 2.50 are added in tax to equal 17.50. to solve subtract 15 from 17.50: c= 2.50. Your variable (c) represents the sales tax. Hope that helps! :)
