Question

The image of the point (4. 9) under a translation is (9. 13). Find the coordinates

Answer 1

Answer:

The coordinates of the image are (10,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Translation

A point located at (x,y), translated by (a,b) maps to the point (x+a,y+b).

If we know the location of the point (x,y) and the location of its image (x',y'), we can know the values of (a,b) by subtracting:

(a,b) = (x',y') - (x,y)

We know the coordinates of the point (4,9) and the coordinates of its image (9,13). Calculate the translation:

(a,b) = (9,13) - (4,9) = (5,4)

If the point (5,2) is translated under the same conditions, then it will map to the point (5,2) + (5,4) = (10,6).

The coordinates of the image are (10,6)
