I suspect that "T: (x, y) (x - 5, y + 3)" means
transform whatever ordered pair (x,y) you are given into the pair (x - 5, y + 3).
in other words,
add (maybe you would say subtract 3) to the first number in the pair, and
add to the second number.
With ,
you change the first number from to , and
you change the second number from to ,
so you end up with as the image of .

Imagine a game where you are told to start at point ,
2 blocks East, and 1 block South of the main intersection of the town.
When you arrive there, you find a message that says "T: (x, y) (x - 5, y + 3),
move 5 blocks West and 3 blocks North."
