Final answer:

To reflect the point D(3, -5) across y = x + 2, swap the x and y coordinates and subtract 2 from the new y-coordinate. The image of D(3, -5) is (-5, 1).

Step-by-step explanation:

To reflect a point across the line y = x + 2, you can swap the x- and y-coordinates and then subtract 2 from the new y-coordinate. Let's apply this to point D(3, -5):

1. Swap the x and y coordinates: (-5, 3).

2. Subtract 2 from the new y-coordinate: (-5, 3 - 2) = (-5, 1).

So, the image of point D(3, -5) under the reflection over y = x + 2 is (-5, 1).
