To determine the new coordinates of the point (4, 5) after the specified translation, we need to perform the following operations:
1. Move the point two units left. This affects the x-coordinate:
\[
x' = 4 - 2 = 2
\]
2. Move the point eight units down. This affects the y-coordinate:
\[
y' = 5 - 8 = -3
\]
After these translations, the new coordinates of the point (4, 5) are (2, -3).
Thus, the y-coordinate of the image is \(-3\).
