The point (−3, −2) is a vertex of a triangle. If the triangle is translated 5 units to the left, what is this point in the translated figure?

To translate a point 5 units to the left, we subtract 5 from the x-coordinate. Therefore, the point (-3, -2) translated 5 units to the left is (-3-5, -2) which simplifies to (-8, -2). Answer: \boxed{(-8, -2)}.
