Question

Image point B'(4,-8) was transformed using the translation (x-2, y+ 3). What were the coordinates of B?

Answer 1

Coordinates of `B` are `(6,-11)`.

Explanation:

As the image point `B'(4,-8)` was transformed using the translation `(x-2, y+ 3)`

for determining `B`, we should have

`x-2=4` i.e. `x=4+2=6`

and `y+3=-8)` i.e. `y=-8-3=-11`

Hence coordinates of `B` are `(6,-11)`.
