A coordinate plane shows two plotted irregular hexagons in the first and fourth quadrants. The coordinate plane shows both the x-axis and y-axis ranging from negative 7 to 7 in unit increments. The first quadrant shows a solid line irregular hexagon labeled upper S, formed by connecting the following points in the given order: point upper A is left parenthesis 1 comma 1 right parenthesis; point upper B left is parenthesis 6 comma 1 right parenthesis; point upper C is left parenthesis 4 comma 5 right parenthesis; point upper D is left parenthesis 5 comma 6 right parenthesis; point upper E is left parenthesis 2 comma 6 right parenthesis; and point upper F is left parenthesis 3 comma 5 right parenthesis. The hexagon is complete with point upper F connecting with point upper A. The fourth quadrant shows a dotted line irregular hexagon labeled upper T formed by connecting the following points in the given order: point upper A is left parenthesis 2 comma negative 1 right parenthesis; point upper B is left parenthesis 5 comma negative 1 right parenthesis; point upper C is left parenthesis 4 comma negative 2 right parenthesis; point upper D is left parenthesis 6 comma negative 5 right parenthesis; point upper E is left parenthesis 1 comma negative 5 right parenthesis; and point upper F is left parenthesis 3 comma negative 2 right parenthesis. The hexagon is complete with point upper F connecting with point upper A.

To determine whether figure T is a reflection of figure S across the x-axis, we can check if the coordinates of the points in figure T correspond to the negation of the y-coordinates of the points in figure S.

The points of figure S are:

  • A (1, 1)
  • B (6, 1)
  • C (4, 5)
  • D (5, 6)
  • E (2, 6)
  • F (3, 5)

Now, let's find the corresponding reflected points across the x-axis for figure S:

  • A' (1, -1)
  • B' (6, -1)
  • C' (4, -5)
  • D' (5, -6)
  • E' (2, -6)
  • F' (3, -5)

Now, we compare these to the points of figure T:

  • A (2, -1)
  • B (5, -1)
  • C (4, -2)
  • D (6, -5)
  • E (1, -5)
  • F (3, -2)

Based on this comparison, the points do not match the reflected points of figure S. Therefore, figure T is not a reflection of figure S across the x-axis.

The answer is: 2 for no.
