A coordinate plane with four quadrants showsthe x-axis ranging from negative 4 to 12 in increments of 1 and the y-axis from 1 to negative 16 in increments of 1. Points upper A, upper B, upper A prime, and upper B prime are plotted on quadrant 4. The plotted points are as follows: Upper A is left parenthesis 1 comma negative 3 right parenthesis and upper B is left parenthesis 2 comma negative 4 right parenthesis. The points are joined by a line. Upper A prime is plotted as left parenthesis 4 comma negative 12 right parenthesis and upper B prime as left parenthesis 8 comma negative 16 right parenthesis. The points are joined by a line.
