The vertices of a triangle are P(-8,1), Q(-6,-8), and R(4,-3) Name the vertices of the image reflected across the x-axis.

my answer;
P1(-8,1), Q1(-6,8), and R1(4,3)

wow 2012, that's the last time I truly felt joy that I could express

We’re all here for finals aren’t we

2012 was the last year of earth. We're all in purgatory at this point

Mhm connexus final exam ey?

looks like I'm not the only one in 2021

the closest one is B... so i'll just go with that XD

The only choices they give are;

P1(-8,1),Q1(-6,-8),R1(4,-3)
P1(-8,-1),Q1(-6,8),R1(4,-3)
P1(8,1),Q1(6,-8),R1(-4,-3)
P1(8,-1),Q1(6,8),R1(-4,3)
Soo I don't understand

yup

Indeed

The answer is P1(-8,-1),Q1(-6,8),R1(4,3)

Antisocial is wrong

All good except P1.

Can you spot the error?

its nice to know im not the only one 'checking my answers' for mid terms :)

I do not believe that the 4 given choices correspond to the question.

Either there is a typo in the question, or the answer.

yes ugh

yessir teacher wouldn't grade my final work so here i am

mogamoga

I meant >

and just like that, the next year semester exams are here

Happy new year

The anwser is P1(8,1),Q1(6,-8),r1(-4,-3)

Your answer does not correspond to any of the choices, neither does mine!

So there is probably is mistake in posting the question.

Once you start using the correct question, think of the following.

There is a general misconception about multiple choices in mathematics.
The safest way to use the multiple choices is NOT to look at the answers. Try to do the calculations yourself, figure out the answer, THEN check which answer corresponds to yours. In a way, you use the choices to check your answer.

Here we are talking about reflection about the x-axis. What does that mean to you in terms of transformations?
You have probably learned that reflection about the x-axis is the transformation:
T(x,y) -> (x,-y)
Apply the transformation to each of the three points and then look for the correct choice. You can't miss it.

I think I got it P1(-1,-1), Q1(-6,-8),R1(4,3)

Thank you!
