Point A has coordinates (3, 4). After a translation 4 units left, a reflection across the -axis, and a translation 2 units down, what are the coordinates of the image?

Answer: (-1,-6)

Explanation:

First, you move 4 spaces left getting you to (-1,4). Then you reflect across the X-axis (a reflection means to mirror over a point of symmetry, which in this case is the X-axis) which gets you to (-1,-4). Finally, you move 2 units down getting you to your answer of (-1,-6)
