Identifying Translations

What rule describes the translation?

• (x - 6, y + 2)

• (x - 2, y + 6)

• (x + 2, y - 6)

• (x + 6, y - 2)

To translate the blue shape to the pink shape, which of the following do we need to do?

• 5 Right

  2 Down

• 5 Left

  2 Up

• 3 Right

  1 Down

• 3 Left

  1 Up

Where would point J' be if you translated point J 5 units to the left and 2 units up?

• (5, 3)

• (3, -5)

• (-5, 3)

• (-3, 5)

Answer explanation

J is at (0,1)
Translating 5 left means decreasing x by 5.
Translating up 2 means increasing y by 2.

$\left(0-5,\ 1+2\right)\longrightarrow\ \left(-5,3\right)$
J' is at (-5, 3)

Translate point A (-8, 6) two to the left and four down. Mark the image on the graph.

What transformation is happening?
(x, y) ----> (x + 2, y - 3) 

• slide up 2, left 3

• slide right 2, up 3

• slide right 2, down 3

• slide left 3, right 2

Which translation will move the blue shape to the green shape?

• 3 Left

  3 Down

• 3 Right

  3 Up

• 2 Right

  3 Up

• 2 Left

  3 Down

Choose all of the following that will translate shape A to shape B.

• (x-5, y-3)

• (x-3, y-5)

• (x+5, y+3)

• (x+3, y+5)

Point M (-3, 5) is translated using this rule.

(x - 1, y)

What are the coordinates of M'?

• (-4, 5)

• (-2, 5)

• (-4, 4)

• (-3, 4)
