Based on the sequence of transformations, the coordinates of P" are P" (-5, -1).

In Mathematics and Euclidean Geometry, a reflection over the line x = n can be represented by the following transformation rule (x, y) → (2n - x ,y);

(x, y) → (-4 - x ,y)

By applying a reflection over the line x = -2 to the coordinates of point P (1, 3), we have the following coordinates of its image;

(x, y) → (-4 - x', y')

P (1, 3) → (-4 - 1, 3) = P' (-5, 3)

Next, we would apply a translation 4 units down to the new point based on the given transformation rule, in order to determine the coordinates of its image as follows;

(x, y) → (x', y' - 4)

P (-5, 3) → (-5, 3 - 4) = P" (-5, -1)
