A triangle with coordinates A (1, 1) , B (4, 2) , C (3, 5) is translated three units down and five units to the left.
What are the coordinates of the new triangle?
A′ (−4, − 2), B′ (−1, − 3), C′ (−2, − 6)
A′ (−2, − 4), B′ (1, − 3), C′ (0, 0)
A′ (−4, − 2), B′ (−7, − 3), C′ (−6, 0)
A′ (−4, − 2), B′ (−1, − 1), C′ (−2, 2)

Triangle ABC is translated to triangle A'B'C' by the following motion rule.
(x, y) → (x + 2, y − 5)


What will be the coordinates of C'?
(0, 2)
(−1, − 3)
(−3, − 2)
(− 5, −3)
The vertices of ∆ ABC are A (− 4, 2) , B (6, 6) , C (2, 7). A translation maps point A to the point A′ (4, 0) . If B and C are mapped by the same translation, what are the coordinates of B' and C'?

After examining the following graph, Kate claims that WXYZ is translated according to the rule:
(x, y) → (x + 11, y − 2).

Is she correct?
Yes, Kate is correct.
No, WXYZ is translated by the rule: (x, y) → (x − 11, y + 2).
No, WXYZ is translated by the rule: (x, y) → (x + 2, y − 11).
No, WXYZ is translated by the rule: (x, y) → (x − 2, y + 11).
