Firstly, we will select three corner points
A=(2,3)
B=(6,8)
C=(7,4)
we are given
the transformation with the rule (x, y)→(x, −y)
y--->-y
so, it is reflected about x-axis
so, we will multiply y-value by -1
we get new points as
A=(2,-3)
B=(6,-8)
C=(7,-4)
now, we can locate these points and draw graph
we get
The only thing you need to do is divide 56 by -7. You know the d must be a negative number because negative x negative= positive. So 56 / -7 is -8.
Can you take a pic of it because it shows as copy and paste
No, they are not equivalent because if you distribute the -0.5 in the expression -0.5(3x+5) you will get -1.5x-2.5 which is not the same as -1.5+2.5
