In the reflection, the point (2,25) becomes (2,−125).

Answer 1

When a point \((x, y)\) is reflected over the x-axis, the x-coordinate remains the same while the y-coordinate changes its sign. Therefore, the reflection of the point \((2, 25)\) over the x-axis will be \((2, -25)\).

The correct response is:

**In the reflection, the point (2,25) becomes (2,−25).**
