Question

figure n is the result of a transformation on figure m. which transformation would accomplish this? answer a translation 2 units left and 4 units up a translation 4 units right and 2 units down a translation 2 units right and 4 units down

Explanation:

Step1: Observe x - coordinate change

Pick a point on Figure M, say the bottom - left vertex. Its x - coordinate is 1. The corresponding point on Figure N has an x - coordinate of - 1. The change in the x - coordinate is $\Delta x=-1 - 1=-2$, which means a shift of 2 units to the left.

Step2: Observe y - coordinate change

The y - coordinate of the bottom - left vertex of Figure M is - 4. The y - coordinate of the corresponding point on Figure N is 0. The change in the y - coordinate is $\Delta y=0-( - 4)=4$, which means a shift of 4 units up.

Answer:

A. A translation 2 units left and 4 units up
