Rectangle abcd is translated to get rectangle a’b’c’d’. rectangle abcd moves units along the x-axis to get rectangle a’b’c’d’. rectangle abcd moves units along the y-axis to get rectangle a’b’c’d’. the algebraic rule that describes this translation is t(x, y), where x = and y = .

Solve the system by the elimination method. x + y - 6 = 0 x - y - 8 = 0 when you eliminate y , what is the resulting equation? 2x = -14 2x = 14 -2x = 14
