Answer:

(0,0),(-4,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Coordinates: (0,0) to (4,6)

Required

Reflect over the y axis

Represent the initial coordinate with (a,b)

When reflect over y axis, the new coordinate becomes


y = (-a,b)

In this case


(a,b) = (4,6)

The reflected coordinate becomes
(-4,6)

Hence, the coordinates of the reflected line is (0,0),(-4,6)
