SOLUTION: Doing reflections on a coordinate plane. The points are (3,6) (5,-4) and (-4,-1). The problem says to reflect over x=-2. What would be the new coordinates after the reflection?

Determine how far is each point from x=-2. After reflection, the point will be the same distance, but on the OTHER SIDE of x=-2. Only x values will change; the y values stay the same.
