Question

A point located at (-3, 2) is translated down 4 units. What are the coordinates of the image?

Answer 1

Answer:

(-3, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

When a point is translated, the key words are very important to look at.

Up/down means you are translating the y axis.

Left/right means you are translating the x axis.

So using this key, we can solve.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A point located at (-3, 2) is translated down 4 units.

Since the point is going down, we will be translating the y axis. 2-4 is -2.

Since the x is staying the same, the x will be -3.

So your translated points are (-3, -2)
