Answer: (8, 1)

========================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

The "move down 7" means the y coordinate 8 becomes 8-7 = 1

We subtract 7 from the y coordinate.

The "move right 8 units" means we add 8 to the x coordinate to get 0+8 = 8

Therefore, the point (0,8) moves to (8, 1)

Check out the diagram below.
