Question

triangle pqr has vertices p(-2,6), q(-8,4), and r(1, -2). it is translated according to the rule (x,y)→(x - 2,y - 16). what is the y - value of p? -18 -16 -12 -10

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the y - coordinate of point P

The coordinates of point P are \((-2,6)\), and the y - coordinate is \(y = 6\).

Step2: Apply the translation rule to the y - coordinate

The translation rule for the y - coordinate is \(y\to y - 16\). Substitute \(y = 6\) into the rule: \(6-16=-10\).

Answer:

• 10
