Which sequence of transformations produces R’S’T’ from RST? On a coordinate plane, triangle R S T has points (0, 0), (negative 2, 3), (negative 3, 1). Triangle R prime S prime T prime has points (2, 0), (0, negative 3), (negative 1, negative 1).
a 90degree clockwise rotation about the origin and then a translation 2 units left
a 90degree counterclockwise rotation about the origin and then a translation 2 units right
a translation 2 units left and then a reflection over the y-axis
a translation 2 units right and then a reflection over the x-axis

A translation 2 units right and then a reflection over the x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

The given vertices of ΔRST are R(0, 0), S(-2, 3), and T(-3, 1)

The vertices of triangle ΔR'S'T' are (2, 0), (0, -3), (-1, -1)

The points are plotted with the aid of MS Excel, and by observation, we have that the image of ΔRST is located on the other side of the x-axis with each coordinate on ΔR'S'T' shifted 2 units to the right of ΔRST

A translation of ΔRST 2 units right gives;

(0 + 2, 0) = (2, 0), (-2 + 2, 3) = (0, 3), and (-3 + 2, 1) = (-1, 1), to give;

(2, 0), (0, 3), and (-1, 1)

A reflection of the point (x, y) across the x-axis gives (x, -y)

A reflection of the above points across the x-axis gives;

(2, 0) reflected about x-axis → (2, 0) reflected about x-axis → (0, -3), and (-1, 1)  reflected about x-axis → (-1, -1), which are the points of ΔR'S'T'

Therefore, the sequence of transformations that produces R'S'T' from RST are;

A translation 2 units right and then a reflection over the x-axis
