Question

question what is the image of (-3, -9) after a reflection over the x - axis? answer attempt 2 out of 2

Explanation:

Step1: Recall reflection rule

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

Step2: Apply rule to point

For the point $(-3,-9)$, we keep the $x$-coordinate the same and change the sign of the $y$-coordinate. So $(-3,-9)\to(-3,9)$.

Answer:

$(-3,9)$
