Question 7 • SRC 2022 M/J Grade 8 Pre-Algebra Q1
Translate (5, 3) left 3 units and down 2 units to get (2, 1). Reflecting (2, 1) over the x-axis changes the y-coordinate to its opposite, giving (2, −1), the desired image. So the correct sequence is to translate left 3 units and down 2 units, then reflect over the x-axis.
