QUESTION 7

A transformation T is described as follows:

• A reflection in the x-axis, followed by

• A translation of 4 units left and 2 units down, followed by
• An enlargement through the origin by a factor of 2

In the diagram Δ ABC is given with vertices A(2 ; –2), B(4 ; –3) and C(1 ; –4).

Note: • If the candidate only draws the correct triangle with labels, full marks
• If they plot the points correctly and do not draw the triangle, max 5 / 6
marks
• In the 3 sketches, if one vertex of the three is wrong, then 1 / 2 marks
for the incorrect sketch, then CA applies.
• If they write down the points and do not plot the points and draw the
triangle max 3 / 6 marks
• If the vertices are correct but not labelled and the points are joined
max 5 / 6 marks
• If the vertices are correct, not labelled and not joined max 4 / 6 marks
• If a candidate finds a formula first and gets it wrong
Max 1 mark for the formula
Max 2 marks for the calculation of A/, B/, C/ coordinates (CA)
1 mark for plotting 3 vertices
1 mark for completing the triangle and labelling
