Question

The image of a figure is shown. What are the coordinates of X in the pre-image of the figure if the rule that created the image was T–5.2, 1.4(x, y)? PLEASE ANSWER 

X =
a. (-7.2, 3.4)
b. (1.2, 6.6)
c. (3.2, 0.6)
b. (9.2,-0.4)

Answer 1

I agree the answer is C)

Hope this somewhat helped! :)

Answer 2

The answer is C. The image of X is (-2, 2) according to the graph. The rule of translation is (-5.2, 1.4). Suppose the pre-image of X is (a,b). Then (a,b)+(-5.2,1.4)=(-2,2). a-5.2=-2, a=3.2. b+1.4=2, b=0.6. So (a,b) is (3.2, 0.6), before the translation occurs.
