Answer: $79^{\circ}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\angle M=x+20^{\circ}$

$\angle N=99^{\circ}$

$\angle M$ and $\angle N$ are vertical opposite angles

$\therefore \angle M=\angle N$

$\Rightarrow (x+20)^{\circ}=99^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow x=(99-20)^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow x=79^{\circ}$

Thus, the value of x is $79^{\circ}$

B: a reflection across the x-axis followed by a translation 4 units right.

Comparing the points to their mapped images compares A to E, B to F, C to G, and D to H. In each point, the y-coordinate switches signs and the x-coordinate is subtracted by 4.

Reflections across the x-axis will switch the sign of the y-coordinate, and reflections across the y-axis will switch the sign of the x-coordinate. Since the y-coordinates are the ones whose sign changed, the points must have been reflected across the x-axis.

Translations to the left will cause the x-coordinate to increase, and translations to the right will case the x-coordinate to decrease. Since the x-coordinate of every point was subtracted, this means that the translation must have been to the right.
