The translated figure VWXYZ, shifted 3 units to the left, can be found by subtracting 3 from the x-coordinate of each vertex.
So, for each option, let's check if the x-coordinate is reduced by 3 units.
For (−1,3), subtracting 3 from the x-coordinate gives (-4,3) which is not a vertex in the translated figure.
For (4,−5), subtracting 3 from the x-coordinate gives (1,-5) which is a vertex in the translated figure.
For (−1,−2), subtracting 3 from the x-coordinate gives (-4,-2) which is not a vertex in the translated figure.
For (1,1), subtracting 3 from the x-coordinate gives (-2,1) which is not a vertex in the translated figure.
Therefore, the vertex in the translated figure is:
(4,-5) - represented as (4,−5)
