Question

What would the new ordered pair of M' be after reflecting the shape over the x-axis

Answer 1

Answer:

(4 , -6 )

Explanation:

Based on the image we can see that M' is in quadrant 2.

Coordinate plane:

• Divided into 4 parts
• Quadrants - represents each quarter of the whole coordinate plane
• (0,0) - origin
• Quadrant 1 ( + , + )
• Quadrant 2 ( - ,+ )
• Quadrant 3 ( - , - )
• Quadrant 4 (+, - )

As you may know reflection is known as a flip.

For example: (-5, 4) in quadrant 1 reflects to ( -5, -4 ) quadrant 3.

From the given we can see that M' is (-4, 6 ), Therefore the reflection of ( -4, 6) is (4, -6).

Answer 2

Answer: (-4, -6)

Explanation:

To reflect a point over the x-axis, we can keep the x-value the same and multiply the y-value by -1 (change the sign).

We are given the coordinate point (-4, 6) so a reflection over the x-axis gives us the point of M' at (-4, -6).
