Question

if a translation of \\(t_{-3, -8}(x, y)\\) is applied to square abcd, what is the y-coordinate of b?

-12
-8
-6
-2

Explanation:

Identify the coordinates of vertex B

$$ B = (1, 2) $$

Apply the translation rule

$$ T_{-3, -8}(x, y) = (x - 3, y - 8) $$

Calculate the coordinates of B'

$$

The \(y\)-coordinate of \(B'\) is \(-6\).

Answer:

• -12
• -8
• -6 (Correct answer)
• -2
