The point (x, y) is the top of a polygon. Which point would it map to if the polygon were reflected over the x-axis and then translated 5 units down?
A) (x, y+5)
B) (x,-y-5)
C) (-x+5, -y)
D) (-x, -y+5)

Respuesta :

Answer:

it´s b for sure

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the transformed point is (x,-y-5), the correct option is B.

What is Reflection of an object?

The reflection of an object refers to creating a mirror image of the object, similar in shape and size, just the coordinates are switched.

When a point is reflected over an axis, the coordinate of the other axis changes to its additive inverse.

The coordinates (x,y) when reflected over x axis change to (x,-y)

The polygon is reflected over x axis

then the coordinate ( x,y) will become (x,-y)

After translation, 5 units down, the coordinate change to

( x, -y-5)
