Question

Which of the following represents the translation of R (-3, 4) along the vector <7, -6> and then the vector <1, 3> ?

Answer 1

ANSWER

R(-3, 4) → R'(4, 2) → R''(3, 1)

EXPLANATION

To translate the point R(-3, 4) along the vector <7, -6>, we have to add each coordinate of the vector to each coordinate of the point,

$R(-3,4)\to R^{\prime}(-3+7,4-6)=R^{\prime}(4,-2)$

Then, for the other vector <-1, 3> the process is the same,

$R^{\prime}(4,-2)\to R^{\doubleprime}(4-1,-2+3)=R^{\doubleprime}(3,1)$

Hence, the sequence is R(-3, 4) → R'(4, 2) → R''(3, 1).
