Answer 2

Answer: The correct option is (C) (1, 3).

Step-by-step explanation: Given that a translation maps point (3, 2) to (4, 5) or T: (3, 2) ⇒ (4, 5).

We are to find the image of the point (0, 0).

Let us consider that the point (3, 2) be translated by (x, y) to reach the point (4, 5).

So, we must have

`(3+x,2+y)=(4,5)\\\\\Rightarrow 3+x=4,~~~~~~~2+y=5\\\\\Rightarrow x=4-3,~~~~~~\Rightarrow y=5-2\\\\\Rightarrow x=1,~~~~~~~~~~~\Rightarrow y=3.`

That is, (x, y) = (1, 3).

Therefore, the image of the point (0, 0) will be

`(0+x,0+y)=(0+1,0+3)=(1,3).`

Thus, the required image of the point (0, 0) is (1, 3).

Option (C) is CORRECT.
