Given:

The point (5,-2) is translated 3 units to the left.

To find:

The new location of the point.

Solution:

If a point is translated 3 units to the left, then

$(x,y)\to (x-3,y)$

Using this rule of translation, we get

$(5,-2)\to (5-3,-2)$

$(5,-2)\to (2,-2)$

Therefore, the new location of the point is (2,-2). Hence, the correct option is C.
