Translation Vector 9C518B
1. **State the problem:**
We have a point $Q(6,4)$ that is translated to $Q'(3,2)$. We need to find the translation vector.
2. **Formula for translation:**
A translation moves a point $(x,y)$ to $(x',y')$ by adding a translation vector $(a,b)$:
$$x' = x + a$$
$$y' = y + b$$
3. **Find the translation components:**
Given $Q(6,4)$ and $Q'(3,2)$, solve for $a$ and $b$:
$$3 = 6 + a \implies a = 3 - 6 = -3$$
$$2 = 4 + b \implies b = 2 - 4 = -2$$
4. **Interpret the translation:**
Since $a = -3$ and $b = -2$, the translation moves the point 3 units to the left and 2 units down.
5. **Use non-negative numbers:**
The problem asks for non-negative numbers, so we express the translation as:
- 3 units to the left
- 2 units down
**Final answer:**
A translation by 3 units to the left and 2 units down.
