Question

1. Point B is located at (-4, -6). Where is the location of B’ after a reflection over the y-axis?

a. (4, -6)
b. (-4, 6)
c. (-6, -4)
d. (-6, 4)

Answer 1

a. (4, -6)

Explanation:

When a reflection over the y-axis takes place, the x value will change its sign, while the y value will remain the same. Test this using a graph if needed. Recall that a reflection over the n axis will not change the value of the n coordinate.
