Math Problem Statement

Graph the image of D(3, -9) after a reflection over the x-axis.

Solution

In the image you provided, we have a point D(3,9)D(3, -9) on the coordinate plane, and the task is to reflect this point over the x-axis.

To reflect a point across the x-axis, you change the sign of the y-coordinate, while the x-coordinate remains unchanged.

So, for point D(3,9)D(3, -9), after reflection over the x-axis, the new coordinates will be:

D(3,9)D'(3, 9)

Thus, the image of point DD after a reflection over the x-axis will be D(3,9)D'(3, 9).
