If you translate a point down 5 units, simply subtract 5 from the y coordinate of the point like this:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Original point:(5,7)----> translated 5 units down: (5,7-5)=(5,2)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the translated point is (5,2)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Here's a way to picture it:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " Original point (5,7) in blue and translated point (5,2) in green shifted down 5 units
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
