Solution
The coordinates of the point which is the mirror image of the point (–3, 5) about the x-axis are (–3, –5).
Explanation:
We know that, for the coordinates of a mirror image of a point on the x-axis, the abscissa remains the same and the ordinate will be of the opposite sign of the ordinate of the given point.
So, the mirror image of the point (–3, 5) about the x-axis is (–3, –5).
