y = -4/5
Answer:
<em>y = - 0.5 | x - 5 | + 2</em><em> </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
g(x) = |x|
step - shifts right 5 units: g(x + 5) = | x <u><em>- 5</em></u> |
step - shifts up 2 units: g(x + 5) + 2 = | x - 5 | <u><em>+ 2</em></u>
step - reflected: - g(x + 5) + 2 =<em> - </em>| x - 5 | + 2
step - stretched by 0.5: <em>y = - </em><u><em>0.5</em></u><em> | x - 5 | + 2</em>
<em>y = - 0.5 | x - 5 | + 2</em>
Answers:
A ' = (-2, -3)
B ' = (0, -3)
C ' = (-1, 1)
=======================================================
Explanation:
To apply an x axis reflection, we simply change the sign of the y coordinate from positive to negative, or vice versa. The x coordinate stays as is.
Algebraically, the reflection rule used can be written as
Applying this rule to the three given points will mean....
- Point A = (-2, 3) becomes A ' = (-2, -3)
- Point B = (0, 3) becomes B ' = (0, -3)
- Point C = (-1, -1) becomes C ' = (-1, 1)
The diagram is provided below.
Side note: Any points on the x axis will stay where they are. That isn't the case here, but its for any future problem where it may come up. This only applies to x axis reflections.
