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?

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the y - coordinate of P

The y - coordinate of point P is 6.

Step2: Apply the translation rule for y

The translation rule for y is \(y
ightarrow y - 16\). Substitute \(y = 6\) into the rule: \(y'=6-16\).

Step3: Calculate the new y - value

\(y'=6 - 16=-10\).

Answer:

A. - 10
