(2, −1)
and (4, 5)
left parenthesis 2 comma negative 1 right parenthesis and left parenthesis 4 comma 5 right parenthesis

(−2, 1)
and (−5, 4)

Answer 1

A rectangle has a side that is 10 units long. How long will this side be after the figure is translated down 4 units and to the right 5 units

Answer 2

To rotate a point \((x, y)\) clockwise 90 degrees about the origin, we use the transformation:

\[
(x, y) \rightarrow (y, -x)
\]

Now, we will apply this transformation to both endpoints of the line segment.

1. **For the first endpoint \((2, -1)\)**:
\[
(2, -1) \rightarrow (-1, -2)
\]

2. **For the second endpoint \((5, -4)\)**:
\[
(5, -4) \rightarrow (-4, -5)
\]

So, after rotating the segment 90 degrees clockwise, the new endpoints are \((-1, -2)\) and \((-4, -5)\).

Therefore, the correct response is:

\((−1, −2)\) and \((−4, −5)\).
