It is 5.6 I am almost positive
If points f and g are symmetric with respect to the line y=x, then the line connecting f and g is perpendicular to y=x, and f and g are equidistant from y=x.
This problem could be solved graphically by graphing y=x and (8,-1). With a ruler, measure the perpendicular distance from y=x of (8,-1), and then plot point g that distance from y=x in the opposite direction. Read the coordinates of point g from the graph.
Alternatively, calculate the distance from y=x of (8,-1). As before, this distance is perpendicular to y=x and is measured along the line y= -x + b, where b is the vertical intercept of this line. What is b? y = -x + b must be satisfied by (8,-1): -1 = -8 + b, or b = 7. Then the line thru (8,-1) perpendicular to y=x is y = -x + 7. Where does this line intersect y = x?
y = x = y = -x + 7, or 2x = 7, or x = 3.5. Since y=x, the point of intersection of y=x and y= -x + 7 is (3.5, 3.5).
Use the distance formula to determine the distance between (3.5, 3.5) and (8, -1). This produces the answer to this question.

Read the problem and answer choices. You want to get from ABCD to EFGH, so you need to figure out how to do that with reflection, translation, and dilation—in that order.
The reflection part is fairly easy. ABC is a bottom-to-top order, and EFG is a top-to-bottom order, so the reflection is one that changes top to bottom. It must be reflection across a horizontal line. The only horizontal line offered in the answer choices is the x-axis. Selection B is indicated right away.
The dimensions of EFGH are 3 times those of ABCD, so the dilation scale factor is 3. This means that prior to dilation, the point H (for example), now at (-12, -3) would have been at (-4, -1), a factor of 3 closer to the origin. H corresponds to D in the original figure, which would be located at (0, -2) after reflection across the x-axis.
So, the translation from (0, -2) to (-4, -1) is 4 units left (0 to -4) and 1 unit up (-2 to -1).
The appropriate choice and fill-in would be ...
... <em>B. Reflection across the x-axis, translation </em><em>4</em><em> units left and </em><em>1</em><em> unit up, dilation with center (0, 0) and scale factor </em><em>3</em><em>.</em>
