Translating Points on a Coordinate Grid

Match the following to move the pre-image UP 4:

• (x, y+4)

• (-3,1)

• (-3,12)

• (-3,-4)

• (-3,0)

• (-3,8)

• (-3,8)

• (x,y)

• (-3,5)

• (-3,4)

Given pre-image point (-2,5)

Plot the pre-image & image after a translation of 2 units right and 7 units down

Match the following points to their correct translation RIGHT 2, DOWN 1.

• (2,-1)

• (x,y)

• (x+2, y-1)

• (3,5)

• (5,4)

• (-7,-10)

• (3,1)

• (1,2)

• (-5,-11)

• (0,0)

Answer explanation

RIGHT 2 means add 2 to each of the original x values in the ordered pair.

DOWN 1 means minus 1 from each of the original y values in the ordered pair.

(x,y)->(x+2, y-1)
