Responses

(5, 9)

(−9,−5)

(−5, 9)

(−5,−9)

Answer 1

To rotate a point (x, y) 270 degrees clockwise, you can use the transformation rule for rotation:

The transformation for a 270-degree clockwise rotation is given by: \[ (x, y) \rightarrow (y, -x) \]

For the point (9, 5):

• \(x = 9\)
• \(y = 5\)

Applying the transformation: \[ (9, 5) \rightarrow (5, -9) \]

Thus, the new point after a 270-degree clockwise rotation is (5, -9).

None of the provided responses match (5, -9). However, the responses provided seem to be incorrect and do not include the correct answer for the rotation. If I must choose, it appears none of the options are correct.

If you were looking for a correct answer from the provided set of responses, it would be necessary to clarify or correct the options.
