Respuesta :

Answer:

(1, -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, we are reflecting. Since we are reflecting over the x axis, the only thing that will change will be the y.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The x is staying the same because it is not moving. The y, however, is changing sides.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Since the y is positive in its original spot, when you reflect over the x axis, you will have a negative y value, which is why it is a -8.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I hope this helps!
