PLEASE HELP The two points shown below (-2,-4) (3,-4)are reflected across the x-axis. Then, the four points are connected to form a rectangle. What is the perimeter of this rectangle?

26 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are reflection, rotation, dilation and reflection.

If a point A(x, y) is reflected across the y axis, the new point is A'(x, -y).

The reflection of the point (-2,-4) across the x axis gives (-2, 4) while the reflection of (3, -4) gives (3, 4)

The distance between (-2, -4) and (-2, 4) is the length while from (-2, -4) to (3, -4) is the breath. Hence:

Perimeter of rectangle = 2(length + breath) = 2(8 + 5) = 2(13) = 26 units

y = 5x + 17

step-by-step explanation:

a perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal slope of the given equation.   the slope given is -1/5 so the opposite reciprocal is 5

find b:

7 = 5 (-2) + b

7 = -10 + b

17 = b

write equation

y = 5x + 17

answer: it's d
