Over the y-axis (x, y) → (−x, y) so ( -5, -3)

Answer:

The point (5,-3) reflection image across the line
y=-x is (3,-5).

Explanation:

Given : Point (5,-3)

To find : The reflection image of given point across the line
y=-x?

Solution :

The reflection across the line
y=-x is when both the coordinated changes its sign and position.

i.e, (x,y) across y=-x line became (-y,-x)

So, The point (5,3) reflection image across the line
y=-x is (3,-5).

Refer the attached figure below to see the reflection.

Therefore, (5,-3)→(3,-5)
