When reflecting a point across the x-axis, the x-coordinate remains the same, but the y-coordinate changes sign.
The original point at the bottom of the heart is (3 1/4, 7 1/2).
In the reflected image, the x-coordinate remains the same: 3 1/4.
However, the y-coordinate changes sign: -7 1/2.
Therefore, the coordinates for the point at the bottom of the heart in the reflected image are (3 1/4, -7 1/2).
the shape of a heart is reflected across the x-axis. if the point at the bottem of the heart for the original figure is at (3 1/4, 7 1/2), what are the coordinates for the point at the bottem of the heart in the reflected image?
