The coordinates of a point on a coordinate grid are (−1, 5). The point is reflected across the x-axis to obtain a new point. The coordinates of the reflected point are (4 points)

(1, −5)
(−1, 5)
(1, 5)

(-1,5) is in the third quadrant.

When you reflect it across the x-axis, the y-value will turn from positive 5 to negative 5.

Thus, when you reflect the point (-1,5) across the x-axis, you will get the point (-1,-5)
