A point's coordinates are changed from (–7, –2) to (7, –2). What impact does this have on the location of the point?

The location of the point remains the same.

It is reflected over the y-axis.

The location of the point is shifted to the left.

It is reflected over the x-axis.

Answer 1

Answer:When you reflect a point across the x-axis, the x-coordinate remains the same, but the y-coordinate is transformed into its opposite (its sign is changed). If you forget the rules for reflections when graphing, simply fold your paper along the x-axis (the line of reflection) to see where the new figure will be located.

Answer 2

Answer: The answer would be "It is reflected over the x-axis"

Step-by-step explanation: The location wouldn't remain the same because the 7 is now a positive #. The y-axis hasn't changed. It's still the same -2. The location of the point would move, but it wouldn't move the the left. It would move to the right, because the negative numbers on the x-axis are on the left hand side, while the positive numbers are on the right hand side
