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?
-18
-16
-12
-10

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the y - coordinate of point P

The coordinates of point P are (-2,6), so the y - coordinate of P is $y = 6$.

Step2: Apply the translation rule for the y - coordinate

The translation rule is $(x,y)\to(x - 2,y - 16)$. For the y - coordinate, we substitute $y = 6$ into $y-16$. So we get $6-16=-10$.

Answer:

D. - 10
