Answer:

To rotate a point 180° clockwise about the origin, we need to flip the signs of the x- and y-coordinates.

The original coordinates of point S are (3,4).

Flipping the signs of both coordinates gives us (-3,-4).

However, we also need to move the point to the second quadrant, so we need to flip the sign of the x-coordinate again.

Therefore, the coordinates of S" are (-(-3),-4), which simplifies to (3,-4).

So the answer is (D) (4,-2).
