Question

Find the reflection of the following point over the y-axis: (7, -3)

Answer 1

Answer: (-7,-3)

Explanation:

The point (7,-3) is located in the fourth quadrant mean that if you reflect the point across the y a-xis, it should end up in the third quadrant.

If you flip a point over the y axis, the x coordinate switches.

(7,-3) ⇒ (-7,-3)

Answer 2

(-7,-3)

Explanation:

You keep the -3 since that is the y but the x will become negative because you are reflecting to the left and not the right, making the x then negative.
