Question

write the coordinates of the vertices after a translation 4 units down.
r(
,
)
s(
,
)
t(
,
)
u(
,
)

Explanation:

Step1: Find the original coordinates

From the graph, \( R(-7,-4) \), \( S(-7,-3) \), \( T(1,5) \), \( U(1,1) \).

Step2: Apply the translation rule

A translation 4 units down means subtract 4 from the \( y \)-coordinate.
For \( R(-7,-4) \): \( R'(-7,-4 - 4)=(-7,-8) \)
For \( S(-7,-3) \): \( S'(-7,-3 - 4)=(-7,-7) \)
For \( T(1,5) \): \( T'(1,5 - 4)=(1,1) \)
For \( U(1,1) \): \( U'(1,1 - 4)=(1,-3) \)

Answer:

\( R'(-7,-8) \), \( S'(-7,-7) \), \( T'(1,1) \), \( U'(1,-3) \)
