Hey there!
First, let's multiply each side of the equation by 3 to get rid of the fraction .
9 + 2x =
Next we can multiply each side of the equation by 5 to get rid of the fraction .
45 + 10x = 6
There's your answer!
Hope this helps!
See the attached figure. The original triangle is shown in red (triangle ABC). The line of reflection is the blue dashed line. This is the equation y = x. Reflecting triangle ABC over the line y = x results in the purple triangle A'B'C'.
Note how the x and y values swap places.
We have...
point A = (5,1) turn into point A' = (1,5)
point B = (8,1) turn into point B' = (1,8)
point C = (8,6) turn into point B' = (6,8)
The swap occurs because the rule (x,y) --> (y,x) tells this to happen.
The purple triangle is the final answer.
