Point P is located at (4,8) on a coordinate plane. Point P will be reflected over the x-axis. What will be the coordinates of the image of point P?

It would be (4, -8). When you reflect something over an axis, the y coordinate will just become it's opposite. ex. (7, 2) reflected over the x axis is (7, -2).
