it just so happen that √2 is an irrational number, so any product with it as a factor, will yield an irrational number as well.
factoid: Ancient Greeks were scared of irrational numbers, and they steered clear from √2.
Ans: (6,-13)
Rationale:
Simply take your pre-image (point before applying transformation) of point B (4,-5) and apply the transformation to each point. Therefore, (x,y) = (4+2,-5-8) = (6,-13)

Answer:
Answer is 225.
We have to find the sum of 15 terms of the series
sigma 1 to 15 (2n-1)
This can be split as per summation terms as
sigma 2n - sigma 1
sigma 2n can again be simplified by taking 2 outside
sigma 2n= 2 times sum of natural numbers of 1 to 15
= 2(15)(16)/2= 240
sigma 1= 1+1+...15 times= 15
Hence final answer is
= 2 times sigma n - (n) = 240-15 = 225.
