The coordinate grid shows a pentagon. The pentagon is translated 1 unit to the left and 10 units down to create a new pentagon.

Which rule describes this transformation?

• (x, y) → ( x − 1, y − 10)

• (x, y) → ( x + 1, y − 10)

• (x, y) → ( x − 1, y + 10)

• (x, y) → ( x + 1, y + 10)

• 
• 
• (6u, −3u )

The table shows the number of gallons of gasoline in a car’s gas tank after the car has been driven x miles.

When these data are graphed on a coordinate grid, the points all lie on the same line. What are the slope and y-intercept of this line?

• Slope = 1/25, y-intercept = 375

• Slope = − 1/25, y-intercept = 15

• Slope = 25, y-intercept = 375

• Slope = −25, y-intercept = 15
