EXPLANATION

The x-coordinate stays the same when representing a point on the x-axis, but the y-coordinate is translated into its opposite (its sign is changed). ... The argument is the Y-axis (-x,y). Reflect across y = x: The x-coordinate and y-coordinate swap positions as you reflect a point on the y = x axis.
