Question

the figure below is reflected over x - axis. what are the coordinates of the image of point c after this transformation? (there is a coordinate plane figure with point c marked, and an answer box at the bottom for entering the coordinate of the image of point c after reflection.)

Explanation:

Step1: Find original coordinates of C

From the graph, point C has coordinates \((-3, -10)\) (x = -3, y = -10).

Step2: Apply reflection over x - axis

The rule for reflecting a point \((x, y)\) over the x - axis is \((x, -y)\). So for \(x=-3\) and \(y = - 10\), the new y - coordinate is \(-(-10)=10\). The new coordinates are \((-3,10)\).

Answer:

\((-3, 10)\)
