Question

figure t is the result of a transformation on figure s. which transformation would accomplish this? answer a translation 6 units to the left. a reflection over the y - axis a reflection over the x - axis a translation 6 units to the right.

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze translation

Translation moves a figure without flipping or rotating it. If it was a translation 6 units to the left or right, the orientation of the figure would remain the same. But the orientation of Figure S and Figure T is not just shifted horizontally; there is a flip - like change.

Step2: Analyze reflection

A reflection over the x - axis would change the y - coordinates of the points of the figure (make them negative if positive and vice - versa). A reflection over the y - axis changes the sign of the x - coordinates of the points of the figure. Looking at Figure S and Figure T, we can see that the x - coordinates of the corresponding points have opposite signs while the y - coordinates remain the same. This indicates a reflection over the y - axis.

Answer:

A reflection over the y - axis
