(-2,-2),(1,-4),(4,-2),(1,0)

Explanation:

"a translation moves the given points in the plane"

2" units right "rarrcolor(blue)"positive 2"

5" units down "darrcolor(blue)"negative 5"

"under the translation "((2),(-5))

• " a point "(x,y)to(x+2,y-5)

W(-4,3)toW'(-4+2,3-5)toW'(-2,-2)

X(-1,1)toX'(-1+2,1-5)toX'(1,-4)

Y(2,3)toY'(2+2,3-5)toY'(4,-2)

Z(-1,5)toZ'(-1+2,5-5)toZ'(1,0)
