Guidance

In geometry, a transformation is an operation that moves, flips, or changes a shape (called the preimage) to create a

new shape (called the image). A translation is a type of transformation that moves each point in a figure the same

distance in the same direction. Translations are often referred to as slides. You can describe a translation using words

like "moved up 3 and over 5 to the left" or with notation. There are two types of notation to know.

1. One notation looks like T(3,5). This notation tells you to add 3 to the x values and add 5 to the y values.

2. The second notation is a mapping rule of the form (x,y) → (x −7,y +5). This notation tells you that the x and

y coordinates are translated to x −7 and y +5.

The mapping rule notation is the most common.

Example A

Sarah describes a translation as point P moving from P(−2,2) to P′(1,−1). Write the mapping rule to describe this

translation for Sarah.

Solution: In general ,P(x,y) → P′(x +a,y +b).

In this case, P(−2,2) → P′(−2+a,2+b) or P(−2,2) → P′(1,−1)

Therefore:

−2+a = 1 and 2+b = −1

a = 3 b = −3

The rule is:

(x,y) → (x +3,y −3)

well my understanding of this question is they want you to use the y=14.1x -2.3 and put the coordinates they gave you onto the line segment of   y=14.1x -2.3
