Question

Point A is located at (1,-2) on the coordinate plane. Point A is reflected over the y-axis to create point G'. Point A' is then reflected over the x-axis to create point A''. What is the coordinate point that describes the location of point A''?

Answer 1

After reflecting Point A located at (1,-2) over the y-axis and then the x-axis, the coordinates of Point A'' are (-1, 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

The student is asking about the coordinates of a point after it has been reflected over both the y-axis and the x-axis on the Cartesian coordinate plane. Point A is initially located at (1,-2). After it is reflected over the y-axis to create Point G', its x-coordinate changes sign, resulting in the point (-1, -2). When Point A' is then reflected over the x-axis to create Point A'', its y-coordinate changes sign, leading to the final coordinates of Point A'' as (-1, 2).
