Explanation:

the y-axis is the point (-x,y). Reflect over the y = x: When you reflect a point across the line y = x, the x-coordinate and y-coordinate change places. If you reflect over the line y = -x, the x-coordinate and y-coordinate change places and are negated (the signs are changed).

Answer:

The rule for reflection on the x-axis is (x,y) -> (x,-y)

The rule for reflection on the y-axis is (x,y) -> (-y,y)

Step-by-step explanation:

A reflection is a transformation that represents a turn of a figure. The figures can be reflected in a point, a line, or a plane.

A reflection copies each point of a figure to an image through a fixed line. The fixed line is called the reflection line.
