Question

The image of the point (4, -9) under a translation is (9, -14). Find the coordinates

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (-4, -13)

Step-by-step explanation:

When the translation (T) is added, the image is formed.

  (4, -9) +T = (9, -14)

  T = (9, -14) -(4, -9) = (9-4, -14-(-9)) = (5, -5)

The same holds for the second point:

  (-9, -8) +T = (-9, -8) +(5, -5) = (-9 +5, -8 -5) = (-4, -13)

The image of the second point under the same translation is (-4, -13).
