Which of the following is the correct algebraic representation for a translation 8 units right and 4 units down? A. (x + 8, y - 4)
B. (x - 4, y + 8)
C. (x – 8, y + 4)
D. (8x, 4y)

The correct answer is A. (x + 8, y - 4)

This is the correct answer because when going right on the x axis, means that you are adding or that it is positive. When going left on the x axis, means you are subtracting, or it is negative.

On the y axis, when going up, you are adding or it is positive. So when you are going down, means you are subtracting or it is negative.

I hope that this helps.
