Answer: -4, -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the rule for the 180 degree rotation counter-clockwise about the origin is (-x, -y), you will need to include the negative signs into your current point on the coordinate plane. Hence, (4, 8) rotated 180 counter-clockwise about the origin is (-4, -8).
