Question

If the point W(5,-4) is reflected over the x axis,

Answer 1

Given:

The point W(5,-4) is reflected over the x-axis.

To find:

The coordinates of the point W' after the reflection.

Solution:

If a point is reflected across the x-axis, then

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

Using this rule of reflection, we get

$W(5,-4)\to W'(5,-(-4))$

$W(5,-4)\to W'(5,4)$

The coordinates of the point W' are (5,4). The correct option is C.
