Answer & Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem, we will use the distance formula.
For our (x1, y1), we will use (-3, 1). For our (x2, y2), we will use (1, 5). Now let's plug in our numbers and solve the problem.
So, the distance between (-3,1) and (1,5) is 5.657 units.

Answer:
B. The graph flips over the x-axis
Step-by-step explanation:
When you plot the coordinate pair (x, y), you plot the point 'y' units above the x-axis. If you change the sign of that (multiply the function by -1), then the point becomes (x, -y), and is plotted 'y' units below the x-axis.
The graph flips over the x-axis.

Attached is an example of a function with its original graph (red) and the graph after being multiplied by -1 (blue). The blue graph is a reflection of the red graph across the x-axis.
