Question

question what is the image of (2, 4) after a reflection over the x - axis? answer attempt 1 out of 2 ( ) submit answer

Explanation:

Step1: Recall reflection rule

When reflecting a point $(x,y)$ over the $x - axis$, the $x$-coordinate remains the same and the $y$-coordinate changes its sign.

Step2: Apply the rule to the given point

For the point $(2,4)$, the $x$-coordinate is $2$ and it stays the same. The $y$-coordinate is $4$, and after reflection over the $x - axis$ it becomes $- 4$.

Answer:

$(2,-4)$
