Answer:

W(0,-4)

Explanation:

By translating right, we add the translation unit to the given coordinate of the x-axis

By translating downwards, we have to subtract the translation unit from the given coordinate of the y-axis

So from what we have here;

We are going to add 5 to the x-axis value and subtract 9 from the y-axis value

Thus, we have it that;

W’ (-5 + 5, 5 -9)

W’ (0,-4)
