Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Reflection is a transformation that preserves lengths.
Triangle XYZ, with side lengths XY = 7 in, YZ = 5 in, XZ = 4 in, is reflected across the x-axis to result in △X'Y'Z'.
This means that corresponding sides have the same lengths:
Find the perimeters of both triangles:
Hence, only option B is true.
The solution to this system is (x, y) = (8, -22).
The y-values get closer together by 2 units for each 2-unit increase in x. The difference at x=2 is 6, so we expect the difference in y-values to be zero when we increase x by 6 (from 2 to 8).
You can extend each table after the same pattern.
In table 1, x-values increase by 2 and y-values decrease by 8.
In table 2, x-values increase by 2 and y-values decrease by 6.
The attachment shows the tables extended to x=10. We note that the y-values are the same (-22) for x=8 (as we predicted above). That means the solution is ...
... (x, y) = (8, -22)
