Draw transformed figures and specify transformation sequences mapping one figure to another.
Write a transformation sequence using ordered rules
Problem
Move every point \(3~\text{units}\) left and \(5~\text{units}\) up, then reflect over the \(x\text{-}\text{axis}\). Write the ordered sequence using precise coordinate notation.
Big Picture
What this problem is really about
An ordered transformation description should expose both the rule at each stage and the fact that stage two acts on stage one’s output. Encode left and up with signed coordinate changes for the first map, use new variable names for the intermediate point, and then write the horizontal-axis reflection of that intermediate.
