B. 7 units to the left and 7 units up
C. 7 units to the right and 7 units up
D. 7 units to the right and 7 units down

Respuesta :

A, tell me if wrong. Also if it it wrong i am really sorry

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given rule of translation is

[tex](x,y) \rightarrow (x-7,y-7)[/tex]        ..... (1)

The rule of translation is defined as

[tex](x,y) \rightarrow (x+a,y+b)[/tex]      ......(2)

Where, a is horizontal translation and b is vertical translation.

If a>0, then graph shifts a units right and if a<0, then graph shifts a units left.

If b>0, then graph shifts b units up and if b<0, then graph shifts b units down.

From equation (1) and (2) we get

[tex]a=-7,b=-7[/tex]

Since a=-7<0 and b=-7<0, therefore graph translated 7 units to the left and 7 units down.

Therefore the correct option is A.
