Axes are shifted 3 units right and 2 units up. A fixed point P then appears moved
A3 right and 2 up
B3 left and 2 down
C3 left and 2 up
D3 right and 2 down
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. 3 left and 2 down
A fixed point appears to move opposite to the shift of the axes, so it seems 3 left and 2 down.
