Question

Can somebody help me with these 2 questions and show work ?? :)

Answer 1

5. A. (4, -2)

6. C. (x, y) — (x, -y + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

5. For the formula y = x, the x and y coordinates get swapped.

M = (-2, 4) — M’ = (4, -2)

6. If the coordinates get reflected across the x-axis, the y coordinates become negative.

(x, y) — (x, -y)

Now that the coordinates are reflected, you go 5 units up (+ 5) to get to the reflection of the coordinates if it was 5 units down before it reflected across the x-axis (- 5).

Ex. 1, 6 gets reflected across the x-axis and moved 5 units up. It’s reflection would be equivalent to (1, -1) because it moved 5 units down (1, 1) then reflected across the x-axis (1, -1).

(x, y - 5) reflected across the x-axis is equivalent to (x, -y + 5)
