The image of the reflection of (-4, -7) over the y-axis can be calculated considering the reflection rule.

For a reflection over the x-axis, the rule is:

Point Reflected point

(x, y) >>>> (-x, y)

So, for the point (-4, -7),

The image is

x = -x

x = -(-4) = 4

y = y

y = -7

And the image is (4, -7).
