Answer:

Option A is correct

a reflection over the y-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule of reflection over y-axis is given by:

$(x, y) \rightarrow (-x, y)$

As per the statement:

Given the transform,

(a, b) to (-a, b)

By definition of reflection;

The given transform is, a reflection over the y-axis

Therefore, a transformation is, a reflection over the y-axis

Select the correct answer. Consider these three numbers written in scientific notation: 6. 5 × 103, 5. 5 × 105, and 1. 1 × 103.

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Scientific notation uses expression which gives easy access of order. The greatest number is $5.5 \times 10^5$ .It is greater by smallest number by 500 times.

<h3>How to convert a number to scientific notation?</h3>

It is usually of the form $a.bc.. \times 10^k$ exponent of 10 starts)

(we have 1 ≤ |a| < 10 ) (where |a| is magnitude of a without sign)

This notation is used to get some idea of how large or small a number is in terms of power of 10.

<h3>What are some basic properties of exponentiation?</h3>

If we have $a^b$ base and 'b' is called power or exponent and we call it "a is raised to the power b" (this statement might change from text to text slightly).
