Question

The point (–4,9) is translated right 5, down 6. What are the coordinates of the translated point? A. (1, 3) B. (1, 15) C. (–9, 3) D. (–9, 15)

Answer 1

the answer for the question is -15,10

Answer 2

Translation to the right means that it affects the x-coordinate. Since the x-coordinate is -4, shifting it right 5 means that it is now -4+5=1. Down 6 is shift in the y-axis. Since the y-coordinate is 9 and it shifts down 6, the new coordinate would be 9-6=3. So the overall coordinate of the translated point is (1,3) or A.
