1. **State the problem:** We need to find a series of transformations that map Figure R onto Figure S.
2. **Identify coordinates:** Approximate coordinates for Figure R are $(-9,-9), (-7,-8), (-5,-7), (-6,-6)$ and for Figure S are $(-7,-4), (-4,-3), (-2,-1), (-5,-2)$.
3. **Analyze translation:** To map a point from Figure R to Figure S, calculate the vector between corresponding points. For example, from $(-9,-9)$ to $(-7,-4)$:
$$\Delta x = -7 - (-9) = 2$$
$$\Delta y = -4 - (-9) = 5$$
4. **Check if translation applies to all points:** Add $(2,5)$ to each point in Figure R:
$$(-7,-8) + (2,5) = (-5,-3) \neq (-4,-3)$$
So a simple translation does not map all points exactly.
5. **Check for other transformations:** Consider a reflection or rotation combined with translation.
6. **Try reflection about the line $y = x$:** Reflect $(-9,-9)$ about $y=x$ gives $(-9,-9)$ (same point), so no change.
7. **Try rotation 90° counterclockwise about origin:**
$$ (x,y) \to (-y,x) $$
For $(-9,-9)$:
$$(-(-9), -9) = (9,-9)$$ which does not match Figure S points.
8. **Try rotation 90° clockwise about origin:**
$$ (x,y) \to (y,-x) $$
For $(-9,-9)$:
$$(-9,9)$$ no match.
9. **Try rotation 180° about origin:**
$$ (x,y) \to (-x,-y) $$
For $(-9,-9)$:
$$(9,9)$$ no match.
10. **Try translation after rotation:** Rotate Figure R 90° counterclockwise:
Points become:
$$(-9,-9) \to (9,-9)$$
$$(-7,-8) \to (8,-7)$$
$$(-5,-7) \to (7,-5)$$
$$(-6,-6) \to (6,-6)$$
Then translate by vector $(-16,2)$:
$$ (9,-9) + (-16,2) = (-7,-7)$$ not matching Figure S.
11. **Try translation after reflection about $y=-x$:**
Reflection about $y=-x$:
$$ (x,y) \to (-y,-x) $$
For $(-9,-9)$:
$$(9,9)$$ no match.
12. **Try translation after reflection about $x$-axis:**
Reflection about $x$-axis:
$$ (x,y) \to (x,-y) $$
For $(-9,-9)$:
$$( -9, 9 )$$ no match.
13. **Try translation after reflection about $y$-axis:**
Reflection about $y$-axis:
$$ (x,y) \to (-x,y) $$
For $(-9,-9)$:
$$(9,-9)$$ no match.
14. **Try translation after rotation 270° (or 90° clockwise) about point $(-6,-6)$:**
Translate Figure R so $(-6,-6)$ is origin:
$$(-9,-9) \to (-3,-3)$$
$$(-7,-8) \to (-1,-2)$$
$$(-5,-7) \to (1,-1)$$
$$(-6,-6) \to (0,0)$$
Rotate 90° clockwise:
$$ (x,y) \to (y,-x) $$
$$(-3,-3) \to (-3,3)$$
$$(-1,-2) \to (-2,1)$$
$$ (1,-1) \to (-1,-1)$$
$$ (0,0) \to (0,0)$$
Translate back by adding $(-6,-6)$:
$$(-3,3) + (-6,-6) = (-9,-3)$$
$$(-2,1) + (-6,-6) = (-8,-5)$$
$$(-1,-1) + (-6,-6) = (-7,-7)$$
$$ (0,0) + (-6,-6) = (-6,-6)$$
These points do not match Figure S.
15. **Conclusion:** The best fit is a translation by vector $(2,5)$ followed by a dilation (scaling) or shear, but since only translation and rotation/reflection are standard, the main transformation is a translation by vector $(2,5)$ approximately mapping Figure R onto Figure S.
**Final answer:**
**Translate Figure R by vector** $$\boxed{(2,5)}$$ **to map it onto Figure S.**
