Answer:

(-6, 7)

Explanation:

The point (6,7) is in quadrant 1 where both x and y are positive. If it is reflected across the y axis, it goes to quadrant 2 where x is negative and y is positive. An ordered pair looks like this: (x,y) so if x is negative, it will be -6. And if y is positive it will stay the same: 7. When you put these values into an ordered pair it is (-6, 7)


hope this helps
