When you reflect a point across the x-axis, the x-coordinate remains the same while the y-coordinate changes sign.

Given the original points:

  • A(−4,−1)
  • B(−5,−2)
  • C(−10,−1)

To find the reflected points:

  • A' will be (−4, 1)
  • B' will be (−5, 2)
  • C' will be (−10, 1)

Therefore, the coordinates after reflection are:

  • A′(−4, 1)
  • B′(−5, 2)
  • C′(−10, 1)

So the correct response is: A′(−4, 1), B′(−5, 2), and C′(−10, 1).
