Answer:

Explanation:

If you reflect over the y axis the y coordinate stays the same and the x coordinates changes sign, so:

So J (-8, 1) reflects to J' (8, 1)

K' is (5, 1)

L' is (0, 6)

M' is (3, 6)

Answer:

J' : (8, 1)

K' : (5, 1)

L' : (3, 6)

M' : (0, 6)

Explanation:

the rule for reflection over the y-axis is (x, y) → (-x, y)

therefore:

J' : (8, 1)

K' : (5, 1)

L' : (3, 6)

M' : (0, 6)
