Answer:
2
Number line.
We start at -6 or -8.
If we start from -6, we will be going __ spaces to the left until we get to -8.
Or start from -8 and go __ spaces to the right until you get to -6.
Then count the spaces.
You'll get 2.
A <span>counterclockwise rotation of 270º about the origin is equivalent to a </span><span>clockwise rotation of 90º about the origin.
Given a point (4, 5), the x-value, i.e. 4 and the y-value, i.e. 5 are positive, hence the point is in the 1st quadrant of the xy-plane.
A clockwise rotation of </span><span>90º about the origin of a point in the first quadrant of the xy-plane will have its image in the fourth quadrant of the xy-plane. Thus the x-value of the image remains positive but the y-value of the image changes to negative.
Also the x-value and the y-value of the original figure is interchanged.
For example, given a point (a, b) in the first quadrant of the xy-plane, </span><span>a counterclockwise rotation of 270º about the origin which is equivalent to a <span>clockwise rotation of 90º about the origin will result in an image with the coordinate of (b, -a)</span>
Therefore, a </span><span>counterclockwise rotation of 270º about the origin </span><span>of the point (4, 5) will result in an image with the coordinate of (5, -4)</span> (option C)
The answer itss b= 41.5 units
