Question

  1. how has the polygon rqts been translated to produce a polygon with q at (-3, -3)? shift down 2 units shift down 6 units shift down 5 units shift down 3 units

Explanation:

Step1: Find the original y - coordinate of point Q

From the graph, the coordinates of point Q are \((-3,3)\). So the original y - coordinate of Q is \(y = 3\).

Step2: Calculate the vertical translation

The new y - coordinate of \(Q'\) is \(y'=-3\). The vertical translation \(d=y'-y\). Substitute \(y = 3\) and \(y'=-3\) into the formula: \(d=-3 - 3=-6\). A negative value for \(d\) in the y - direction means a shift down.

Answer:

shift down 6 units
