Answer:

(6, -11)

Explanation:

The translation (x-2,y+3) means "subtract 2 from x coordinate" and "add 3 to the y coordinate".

After the transformation, we have the point B'(4,-8). Which point, let it be (x,y), after being transformed is B'(4,-8)??

According to the transformation rule, we have to "subtract 2 from x coordinate" and "add 3 to the y coordinate", thus

x-2=4

x=4+2

x=6

and

y+3=-8

y=-8-3

y=-11

THe coordinate of B are (6,-11)
