Question

The point (2, −3) is reflected across the x -axis. In what quadrant is the reflected point located?

(1 point)
Quadrant

Answer 1

The point (2, -3) is reflected across the x-axis, so the x-coordinate stays the same and the sign of the y-coordinate changes. The original y-coordinate is negative, so when it is reflected the y-coordinate becomes positive. Therefore, the reflected point is located in the fourth quadrant.
