Answer:

P' ( - 3 , - 8 )    Q' ( - 6 , 4 )      R' ( 1 , - 1 )  

Step-by-step explanation:

- The reflection of any point ( x , y ) in a cartesian coordinate system can be determined by the units of y. The number of units of y above or below the x-axis must be determined.

- If the point ( x , y ) lies y units above the x-axis then its reflection in X-axis is y units below the x-axis while the x-coordinate remains the same. Similarly, If the point ( x , y ) lies y units below the x-axis then its reflection in X-axis is y units above the x-axis while the x-coordinate remains the same.  

- We have the following vertices of the triangle:

                       P ( -3 , 8 )      Q ( -6 , -4 )       R ( 1 , 1 )

We see that point P lies y = 8 units then its reflection in X-axis is 8 units below the x-axis i.e y = -8 while x remains the same at x = -3. So the reflected point P' is:

                                            P' ( - 3 , - 8 )

We see that point Q lies 4 units below x-axis y = -4 then its reflection in X-axis is 4 units above the x-axis i.e y = +4 while x remains the same at x = -6. So the reflected point Q' is:

                                            Q' ( - 6 , 4 )

We see that point R lies y = 1 units then its reflection in X-axis is 1 units below the x-axis i.e y = -1 while x remains the same at x = 1. So the reflected point R' is:

                                            R' ( 1 , - 1 )

- The the vertices of the reflected image are:

                      P' ( - 3 , - 8 )    Q' ( - 6 , 4 )      R' ( 1 , - 1 )

If m∠c=11x+85/3 and x=13 then what type of angle is c please help me with this
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Acute angle

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that m<C = \frac{11x + 85}{3}, to find out the type of angle angle C is, evaluate the expression given by substituting x = 13, in the expression.

m<C = \frac{11x + 85}{3}

m<C = \frac{11(13) + 85}{3}

m<C = \frac{228}{3}

m<C = 76°

Acute angles are less than 90°.

m<C is less than 90°, therefore it is an acute angle.

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

6x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

your combine like terms...

so 13x is teh same as -7x

13x-7x= 6x

3 and -1 are the same as well

3-1=2

so teh answer would be

6x+2
