Give the coordinates of each vertex (D, E, and F) and explain how you found the coordinates.

If you reflect the coordinates over the y-axis, the y-values will not be changing, but the signs of the x-values will flip. So, you will have A'(-4, 2), B'(-7, 9), and C'(-7, 2).

When you translate the resulting triangle down 5 units, the y-values will decrease by 5 units. So, the coordinates of triangle DEF will be D(-4, -3), E(-7, 4), and F(-7, -3).

Hope this helps!

Answer:

D (-4, -3)

E (-7, 4)

F (-7,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Well triangle ABC reflected over the y-axis to make triangle DEF looks like the image below. ↓

Then we have to translate triangle DEF 5 units down.

With the coordinates D, E, F,

D (-4,2)

E (-7,9)

F (-7,2)

To translate it 5 units down we just subtract the y coordinates by 5.

D (-4, -3)

E (-7, 4)

F (-7,-3)

Thus,

the coordinates for triangle DEF are (-4, -3) , (-7, 4) , (-7,-3).

Hope this helps :)
