Question

If the point (3,−4) is reflected over the x-axis of the coordinate plane, what are the corresponding coordinates of the reflected point?

Answer 1

The point (3,-4) reflected over the x-axis of the coordinate plane would have the same x-coordinate (3) and the opposite y-coordinate. Since the y-coordinate is reflected over the x-axis, the opposite of -4 would be 4.

So, the reflected point would have the coordinates (3,4).
