Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The coordinates of point Q are (3,6) . The coordinates of point Q' are (9,3)
3. The translation maps point Q to point Q'

STEP 2

A translation in the plane can be described by a pair of numbers, x,y\langle x, y\rangle, where xx is the horizontal shift and yy is the vertical shift.

STEP 3

To find the horizontal shift, subtract the x-coordinate of point Q from the x-coordinate of point Q'.
x=xQxQx = x_{Q'} - x_{Q}

STEP 4

Plug in the given x-coordinates to calculate the horizontal shift.
x=93x =9 -3

STEP 5

Calculate the horizontal shift.
x=93=x =9 -3 =

STEP 6

To find the vertical shift, subtract the y-coordinate of point Q from the y-coordinate of point Q'.
y=yQyQy = y_{Q'} - y_{Q}

STEP 7

Plug in the given y-coordinates to calculate the vertical shift.
y=36y =3 -6

STEP 8

Calculate the vertical shift.
y=36=3y =3 -6 = -3

STEP 9

Now that we have the horizontal and vertical shifts, we can write the translation in the form x,y\langle x, y\rangle.
Translation=x,yTranslation = \langle x, y\rangle

STEP 10

Plug in the values for the horizontal and vertical shifts to write the translation.
Translation=6,3Translation = \langle6, -3\rangleThe translation that maps Q to Q' is 6,3\langle6, -3\rangle.
