(2, 4)
left parenthesis 2 comma 4 right parenthesis
(−6, 6)
To translate the figure HIJKL 3 units to the left, we would subtract 3 from the x-coordinate of each point.
H: (x, y) -> (x - 3, y)
I: (x, y) -> (x - 3, y)
J: (x, y) -> (x - 3, y)
K: (x, y) -> (x - 3, y)
L: (x, y) -> (x - 3, y)
So the translated figure would have the vertices:
H': (-6, 6)
I': (-4, 4)
J': (-5, -2)
K': (-10, 4)
L': (-9, 9)
Therefore, the vertex that would be in the translated figure is (-6, 6).
