would it be double negatives?

OpenStudy (dan97):

no it would'nt be since it is reflected across the x-axis , the value of x remains same can you guess the answer now ?

OpenStudy (mathmale):

I'd strongly suggest that you draw a diagram. I think the answer would be obvious if you see such a diagram. If you rotate a point P(x,y) about the x-axis, the x-coordinate does not change, but the y-coordinate becomes the negative of the given y.
