Solution

The correct option is B
(6, 3)

Let P' be the image

x = 2 is acting as the mirror

So $\frac{x + (- 2)}{2} = 2$ [Midpoint formula]

$\Rightarrow x = 4 + 2 = 6$

So P' = (6, 3)

The correct option is B (6, 3) Let P' be the image x = 2 is acting as the mirror So x+(−2)2=2 [Midpoint formula] ⇒x=4+2=6 So P' = (6, 3)
