Answer:

Reflecting across the Y axis would make all the points on the triangle the same distance from the Y axis, just on the opposite side.

Point B is at X = -1, so when reflected across the Y axis would be at X = 1

The Y value would remain the same.

The new location for B would be (1,4)

please add graph for next time could help more
