Answer:
X′(−3, 6), Y′(7, 8), Z′(11, 2)
Explanation:
Imagine you are a spy who needs to infiltrate a secret base located at the origin of the coordinate plane. You have three accomplices, X, Y, and Z, who are waiting for you at different points on the plane. X is at (3, 6), Y is at (-7, 8), and Z is at (-11, 2). You have a device that can reflect any point over the y-axis, which you plan to use to confuse the enemy guards. You decide to reflect X, Y, and Z over the y-axis to create X', Y', and Z', respectively. What are the coordinates of these new points?
To find the coordinates of X', you simply change the sign of the x-coordinate of X. So, X' is at (-3, 6). Similarly, to find the coordinates of Y' and Z', you change the sign of the x-coordinates of Y and Z. So Y' is at (7, 8) and Z' is at (11, 2). Now you have three new points that are symmetric to the original ones over the y-axis.
But wait! There's a problem. The enemy guards have noticed that something is wrong. They see four points on their radar: one at the origin (you) and three on the right side of the y-axis (X', Y', and Z'). They realize that these points are reflections of some other points on the left side of the y-axis. They quickly deduce that there must be a spy among them. They start searching for you.
You need to act fast. You use your device again to reflect yourself over the y-axis. This creates a new point at (-0, 0), which is exactly the same as (0, 0). You have effectively disappeared from their radar. You sneak into the base while they are busy looking for you on the wrong side of the plane.
You have successfully completed your mission. Congratulations! You are a master of reflections.
