The answer is -3, Choice 1 because you only need to care about the x values, so what do you add/subtract from 8 you get 5? So the answer is -3

Answer:

A) -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

When (8x + 12y) is added to (ax − 6y) the answer is (5x + 6y)

(8x+12y)+(ax-6y)=(5x+6y)

8x+12y+ax-6y=5x+6y

(8+a)x+6y = 5x+6y      ( By combining like terms )

By comparing,

8+a = 5

\implies a = 5 - 8 = -3

Hence, the value of x is -3,

Option A is correct.

Reflecting the polygon FGHI across the line involves flipping the line across the line y = -1

<h3>How to reflect the polygon?</h3>

The coordinates are given as:

F(2, – 1), G(5,2), H(8, 3), and I(6, 0)

The line of reflection is given as:

y = -1

To reflect the line, we apply the following rule of reflection

(x,y) \to  (x,-y-2)

So, we have the following coordinates of the image

F' = (2, – 1)

G' = (5,-4)

H' = (8, -5)

I' = (6, -2)

See attachment for the image of the reflected polygon
