Point M (4, 3) is translated according to the rule (x, y) (x + 2, y - 5). What are the coordinates of M?
(2, −2)
(6, 8)
(2, 8)
(6, -2)
can someone give me the answer please
huh? add 2 to x, and subtract 5 from y
pick the pair that matches.
To find the coordinates of point M after the translation according to the rule (x, y) → (x + 2, y - 5), we need to apply the rule to the original coordinates of M.
The original coordinates of M are (4, 3). Applying the translation rule, we add 2 to the x-coordinate and subtract 5 from the y-coordinate:
New x-coordinate: 4 + 2 = 6
New y-coordinate: 3 - 5 = -2
Therefore, the coordinates of M after the translation are (6, -2).
So, the correct answer is (6, -2).
