Answer:

see attached (red)

Explanation:

You want the graph of the transformed triangle defined by the lines y=x, x=6, y=-1/3x+4 after rotation 270° and reflection across the y-axis.

Triangle

A graph of the lines shows the vertices of the triangle are ...

A(3, 3), B(6, 6), C(6,2)

Transformations

Rotation 270° is described by the transformation ...

(x, y) ⇒ (y, -x)

Reflection across the y-axis is described by ...

(x, y) ⇒ (-x, y)

Then the composition of these transformations is ...

(x, y) ⇒ (-y, -x) . . . . . . . . equivalent to reflection over y=-x

Application

Applying this composition to the triangle vertices, we find its final location to be ...

A(3, 3) ⇒ A''(-3, -3)

B(6, 6) ⇒ B''(-6, -6)

C(6,2) ⇒ C''(-2, -6)

The triangle with these vertices is shown in red in the attachment.
