Answer:

(-4 1/2,3) is the final result.

Explanation:

V(4 1/2, -3)

The order of the reflections do not matter.

So if I consider the x axis first, only the y value will change. Seems weird, but try doing this on a piece of scrap paper.

(4 1/2, 3 ) is the new point. The point is reflected an equal distance behind the mirror on the x axis.

Now do the y axis. Only the x value of the point is changed.

(-4 1/2, 3) is what happens.

===================================

Does the order matter?

V(4 1/2, - 3) goes across the y axis to become (-4 1/2 , - 3)

V'(-4 1/2, -3) goes across the x axis to become (-4 1/2, 3) which is exactly what we got before.

Order does not matter for these 2 transformations.
