Answer:

C. (4, -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

To reflect a point over a straight horizontal line, start from the original point and count how many units it takes to reach that line (going vertically). Keep that number in mind. Then, at that same point on the line, go vertically again and count that many units going away from the line. The point where you stop would be the reflected point.

In this case, starting from (4, 8) and then going down towards the x-axis would take 8 units. Taking that number and counting another 8 units down would land you at (4, -8). Therefore, (4, -8) is the answer.
