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 )

The slope of the graph of the equation y=2x-2 is 2.What is the y-intercept?
Andrew [12]
Y-intercept = -2

Note that your equation is in slope-intercept form. Slope-intercept form can represented by y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Last question and then I’ll take care of the rest on my own ^^^^
Bond [772]

Answer:

  (c)  5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable rules of exponents are ...

  (a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

  (a^b)/(a^c) = a^(b-c)

  a^-b = 1/a^b

__

Using these rules, we can simplify the expression as follows:

  (5^-3)(2^2)(5^6)/((2^3)(5^2)) = (5^(-3+6-2))(2^(2-3)) = (5^1)(2^-1)

  = 5/2
