@LynFran @ganeshie8 @Hero @IrishBoy123 @iambatman @peachpi help please!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What are the coordinates for C ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

positive 7 and i cant figure out the other number

OpenStudy (anonymous):

7 is the y-coordinate. From point C, follow the line down to the x-axis. What number is that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got positive 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right, so C is (3, 7)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you so much!

|dw:1441402563657:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you put where C' would be after the reflection?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

on y or x axis?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im not sure on how to do that here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, well which quadrant do you think it'd be in?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it will be negative i think

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Basically all you have to do is change the sign on the x-coordinate of C to get C'|dw:1441402979571:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohhhh makes sense now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

good. So what would be the coordinates for C' ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

7 and -3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh so only the y coordinate changes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you help me with a similar problem? i'm kinda stuck on it
