Transformation involves changing the position of a point in the coordinate plane

The new coordinate is (-10,-1)

The vertex (A) of the triangle is given as:

$A = (-4,-1)$

The rule of sliding the triangle 6 units right is:

$(x,y) \to (x - 6,y)$

So, we have:

$A' = (-4 - 6,-1)$

Subtract 6 from -4

$A' = (-10,-1)$

Hence, the new coordinate is (-10,-1)
