Question

write the coordinates of the vertex after a translation 10 units left and 5 units up.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify original coordinates

First, we need to find the original coordinates of the vertices. Let's assume the vertices are \( H \), \( P \), and \( O \) (from the graph). From the graph, let's determine their coordinates:

  • Let's say \( H \) is at \( (2, -5) \), \( P \) is at \( (8, -6) \), and \( O \) is at \( (8, 3) \) (we need to check the grid, but let's proceed with the translation rule). Wait, maybe the original vertex (let's take \( O \) as an example, but actually, we need to check each vertex. Wait, the problem says "the vertex" – maybe a specific vertex? Wait, maybe the original coordinates: let's re-examine. Wait, the graph has a triangle with vertices, let's find their coordinates. Let's assume the original vertex (let's take \( O \) first, but maybe the user refers to a vertex, say, let's suppose the original vertex (let's check the x and y axes). Wait, the x-axis: from -10 to 10, y-axis from -10 to 10. Let's find the coordinates of a vertex, say \( O \): looking at the graph, \( O \) is at \( (8, 3) \)? Wait, no, maybe \( O \) is at \( (8, 3) \)? Wait, no, let's check again. Wait, the blue triangle: let's see, \( H \) is at \( (2, -5) \), \( P \) at \( (8, -6) \), \( O \) at \( (8, 3) \). Now, the translation is 10 units left and 5 units up.

Step2: Apply translation rule

The translation rule for a point \( (x, y) \) moving \( a \) units left (subtract \( a \) from \( x \)) and \( b \) units up (add \( b \) to \( y \)) is \( (x - a, y + b) \). Here, \( a = 10 \), \( b = 5 \).

Let's take each vertex:

For \( H(2, -5) \):

New \( x \): \( 2 - 10 = -8 \)
New \( y \): \( -5 + 5 = 0 \)
So \( H'(-8, 0) \)

For \( P(8, -6) \):

New \( x \): \( 8 - 10 = -2 \)
New \( y \): \( -6 + 5 = -1 \)
So \( P'(-2, -1) \)

For \( O(8, 3) \):

New \( x \): \( 8 - 10 = -2 \)
New \( y \): \( 3 + 5 = 8 \)
So \( O'(-2, 8) \)

Wait, but maybe the problem refers to a specific vertex? Wait, the original problem says "the vertex" – maybe a typo, "the vertices"? Or a specific vertex. Wait, maybe the original vertex (let's check the graph again). Wait, maybe the vertex \( O \) is at \( (8, 3) \). Let's confirm the translation: 10 units left (subtract 10 from x) and 5 units up (add 5 to y). So for \( O(8, 3) \):

\( x = 8 - 10 = -2 \)

\( y = 3 + 5 = 8 \)

So the new coordinate is \( (-2, 8) \). But maybe the original vertex was different. Wait, maybe the user made a typo, but assuming the vertex is \( O(8, 3) \), the translation gives \( (-2, 8) \). Alternatively, if the vertex is \( H(2, -5) \), it becomes \( (-8, 0) \), and \( P(8, -6) \) becomes \( (-2, -1) \).

But let's assume the vertex in question is \( O \) with original coordinates \( (8, 3) \). Then:

Step1: Identify original coordinates

Original coordinates of \( O \): \( (8, 3) \)

Step2: Apply translation

Translation: 10 units left (x decreases by 10) and 5 units up (y increases by 5).

New \( x \)-coordinate: \( 8 - 10 = -2 \)

New \( y \)-coordinate: \( 3 + 5 = 8 \)

So the new coordinates are \( (-2, 8) \).

Answer:

If the original vertex is \( O(8, 3) \), the new coordinates after translation are \(\boldsymbol{(-2, 8)}\). (If other vertices, adjust accordingly: \( H(2, -5) \) becomes \( (-8, 0) \), \( P(8, -6) \) becomes \( (-2, -1) \))
