Question

1. what is the rule for translating a point (x, y) 5 units up? (x, y - 5) (x, y + 5) (x - 5, y) (x + 5, y)

Explanation:

In a coordinate plane, when translating a point vertically, the \(x -\)coordinate remains unchanged. Moving a point up means increasing the \(y -\)coordinate. If we move a point \(5\) units up, we add \(5\) to the \(y -\)coordinate of the point \((x,y)\).

Answer:

\((x,y + 5)\) (the second option)
