ANSWER

The coordinates of the image are (2,2)

EXPLANATION

The mapping for a reflection across the line y=k is :

[tex](x,y)\to (x,2k-y)[/tex]

We want to find the image of the point (2,-4) after a reflection in the line y=-1.

In this case k=-1.

[tex](2, - 4)\to (2,2( - 1)- - 4)[/tex]

This simplifies to,

[tex](2, - 4)\to (2, - 2 + 4)[/tex]

[tex](2, - 4)\to (2, 2)[/tex]

Hence the image is (2,2)
