Explanation:

Step1: Translate the x - coordinate

For a translation right 4 units, add 4 to the x - coordinate. The original x - coordinate is \(x=-2\). So the new x - coordinate is \(x'=-2 + 4\).
\(x'=-2+4 = 2\)

Step2: Translate the y - coordinate

For a translation down 2 units, subtract 2 from the y - coordinate. The original y - coordinate is \(y =-7\). So the new y - coordinate is \(y'=-7-2\).
\(y'=-7 - 2=-9\)

Answer:

\((2,-9)\)
