Question 146953: Consider the triangle defined by P=(1,3), Q=(2,5, and R=(6,5). The transformation defined by T(x,y)=(x+2,y-1) is mathematical notation for translating a point by the vector [2,-1]. The point P(1,3) becomes T(1,3)=(1=2,3-1)=P'(3,2). Find Q' and R'. Graph both the original triangle and its image.

The point Q(2,5) becomes T(2,5)=(2+2, 5-1) = Q'(4,4).
The point R(6,5) becomes T(6,5)=(6+2, 5-1) =R'(8,4).

In the graph, the red triangle shows the initial position and green shows the final position.
