Question

Triangle QRS is located on the coordinate plane, where vertex Q is located at point (a,b).

The triangle is reflected across the c-axis and then translated 2 units to the right to create triangle TUV

Create an expression for the x-coordinate of T

Answer 1

(a+2, -b)

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

(a+2, -b)

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflection across x-axis transforms the point (x, y) into (x, -y).

Translation 2 units to the right transforms the point (x, y) into (x+2, y).

Point T is the reflection of point Q which has the coordinates (a,b), then, point T is placed at (a+2, -b).
