To rotate the point \((-4, -6)\) 90 degrees counterclockwise, you can use the formula for rotation of points in the Cartesian plane.
The general rule for rotating a point \((x, y)\) 90 degrees counterclockwise around the origin is:
\[
(x, y) \rightarrow (-y, x)
\]
Applying this to the point \((-4, -6)\):
1. Identify \(x = -4\) and \(y = -6\).
2. Replace using the rule:
- New \(x = -(-6) = 6\)
- New \(y = -4\)
Thus, the new point is \((6, -4)\).
Therefore, the correct response is:
\((6, -4)\)
