Question

graph the image of m(9, -7) after a rotation 180° clockwise around the origin.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall rotation rule

The rule for a 180 - degree clockwise rotation around the origin is $(x,y)\to(-x,-y)$.

Step2: Apply rule to point M

Given $M(9, - 7)$, when we apply the rule, $x = 9$ and $y=-7$. So, $-x=-9$ and $-y = 7$. The new point is $(-9,7)$.

Answer:

The image of point $M(9,-7)$ after a 180 - degree clockwise rotation around the origin is $(-9,7)$.
