Quadrilateral MNOP was translated 5 units to the right and 4 units down. Which rule describes the translation that was applied to quadrilateral MNOP to create quadrilateral M′N′O′P′?

(x, y) ⇒ (x + 5, y - 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are reflection, rotation, translation and dilation.

Translation is the movement of a point either up, down, left or right. If a point A(x, y) is translated a units right and b units up, the new location of the point is at A'(x + a, y + b) while if a point A(x, y) is translated a units left and b units down, the new location of the point is at A'(x - a, y - b).

Since Quadrilateral MNOP was translated 5 units to the right and 4 units down to create quadrilateral M′N′O′P′, the rule that was applied was:

(x, y) ⇒ (x + 5, y - 4)
