Question

  1. what are the coordinates of the image r x - axis (-3, 8)?

a (8, -3)
b (3, 8)
c (3, -8)
d (-3, -8)

Explanation:

Step1: Reflection over x - axis rule

When a point \((x,y)\) is reflected over the \(x -\)axis, the rule is \((x,y)\to(x, - y)\).

Step2: Apply the rule to the point \((-3,8)\)

Here \(x=-3\) and \(y = 8\). Using the rule \((x,y)\to(x, - y)\), we get \((-3,8)\to(-3,-8)\)

Answer:

D. \((-3, - 8)\)
