Answer:
(4,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
The object is first at (0,0)
It is reflected across line x=-2, this means you draw the mirror line at x=-2 and count 2 equal units backwards to get the image.The image will be at ;
The image (-4,0) is then reflected on the y-axis
You know reflection on the y-axis, the y-coordinate remains the same but the x-coordinate is changed to its opposite sign.
Hence;
(- -4,0)= (4,0)
The image will move 8 units towards positive x-axis.This is the same as moving 4 units from the mirror line at (0,0) and land at (4,0)

Answer:
x^2 -4x +2 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The other root is the conjugate of the given one, so is 2-√2. The quadratic equation in factored form is then ...
(x -2-√2)(x -2+√2) = 0
Expanding this, we get ...
(x -2)^2 -(√2)^2 = 0
x^2 -4x +4 -2 = 0
x^2 -4x +2 = 0 . . . . the equation you're looking for
