Use the translation to move the points by adding 4 to the x-coordinates and subtracting 2 from the y-coordinates of each vertex.
Before we attempt to translate the given points, let's draw the quadrilateral ABCD on a coordinate plane using the given points. This will be our preimage.
Now that we have the preimage, we can create the image using the translation (x,y) → (x+ 4,y- 2). This translation tells us that for every point in ABCD, we should add 4 to each x-coordinate and subtract 2 from each y-coordinate.
We can see that the translation moved the points to the right and down. Finally, we can connect the points to have the new quadrilateral.
