Answer:

T(x, y) = T(0, -8)

Explanation:

The first reflection can be represented as ...

(x, y) ⇒ (-x, y)

__

The rotation about the origin is the transformation ...

(x, y) ⇒ (-x, -y)

so the net effect of the first two transforms is ...

(x, y) ⇒ (x, -y)

__

Then the reflection across y=4 alters the y-coordinate:

(x, y) ⇒ (x, 8-y)

so the net effect of the three transforms is ...

(x, y) ⇒ (x, 8+y)

__

In order to bring the figure back to place, we must translate it down 8 units using ...

(x, y) ⇒ (x, y-8) . . . . net effect: (x, y) ⇒ (x, (8+y)-8) = (x, y)

The translation is by 0 units in the x-direction and -8 units in the y-direction.
