The rule for the reflection is explained below. The correct option will be x-axis (x, y) = (x, -y).

In real life, we think of a reflection as a mirror image, like when we look at own reflection in the mirror.

This idea of reflection correlating with a mirror image is similar in math.

<h3>Reflection Over the X Axis </h3>

A reflection of a point, a line, or a figure in the X axis involved reflecting the image over the x axis to create a mirror image.

In this case, the x axis would be called the axis of reflection.

The rule for reflecting over the X axis is to negate the value of the y-coordinate of each point, but leave the x-value the same.

When point P with coordinates (5,4) is reflecting across the X axis and mapped onto point P’, the coordinates of P’ are (5,-4).

Notice that the x-coordinate for both points did not change, but the value of the y-coordinate changed from 4 to -4.

<h3>Reflection Over the Y Axis </h3>

A reflection of a point, a line, or a figure in the Y axis involved reflecting the image over the Y axis to create a mirror image.

In this case, the Y axis would be called the axis of reflection.

The rule for reflecting over the Y axis is to negate the value of the x-coordinate of each point, but leave the y-value the same.

when point P with coordinates (5,4) is reflecting across the Y axis and mapped onto point P’, the coordinates of P’ are (-5,4).

Notice that the y-coordinate for both points did not change, but the value of the x-coordinate changed from 5 to -5.

Hence the correct option is r x-axis(x, y) = (x, -y).

Solve the simultaneous equations
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

x = -2, y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 3y = 5

5x - 2y = -16

In order to find the value of a variable, we must eliminate the other variable by multiplying the equations to get the same coefficient.

We can multiply the first equation by 5 and the second one by 2 to get the same coefficient for x, the equations then become:

10x + 15y = 25

10x - 4y = -32

Now we can subtract:

19y = 57

y = 3

Since we know the value of y, we can substitute it into one of the original equations:

2x + 3(3) = 5

2x + 9 = 5

2x = -4

x = -2

Mr. Wilson's desk drawer contains 4 black, 3 blue, and 3 red pens. If he selects one pen a random, what is the probability that
gtnhenbr [62]
<h3>Answer:  3/5</h3>

Work Shown:

3 blue + 3 red = 6 pens that are either blue or red

4 black + 3 blue + 3 red = 10 pens total

6/10 = 3/5 is the probability of selecting either blue or red

3/5 = 0.60 = 60%
