If you reflect (–2, –8) across both axes, which quadrant will it be in?

Right now, the coordinate is in quadrant III.

It doesn't matter which one (axis) you reflect off of first.

If you do x first, it would go to quadrant II, (over the x-axis) and then to I (over the y-axis)

If you do y first, then it would go to IV then to l.

So, (-2,-8) will land on the first Quadrant.

I hope this helps!
