Question

Quadrilateral MNPQ has vertices at (−3, 5), (−4, 6), (−5, 7), and (−6, 8). If the Quadrilateral MNPQ is reflected over the x−axis, what will the new coordinates be?

(3, 5), (4, 6), (5, 7), (6, 8)
(5, −3), (6, −4), (7, −5), (8, −6)
(−3, −5), (−4, −6), (−5, −7), (−6, −8)
(3, −5), (4, −6), (5, −7), (6, −8)

Answer 1

The coordinates of the reflected quadrilateral over the x-axis are (-3, -5), (-4, -6), (-5, -7), (-6, -8).

Step-by-step explanation:

To reflect a point over the x-axis, we keep the x-coordinate the same and change the sign of the y-coordinate.

So, if we reflect the vertices of the quadrilateral MNPQ over the x-axis, the new coordinates will be:

(-3, 5) -> (-3, -5)(-4, 6) -> (-4, -6)(-5, 7) -> (-5, -7)(-6, 8) -> (-6, -8)

Therefore, the correct answer is (−3, −5), (−4, −6), (−5, −7), (−6, −8).

Answer 2

the answer is c (x-y)
