Question

Name the coordinates of P(-8, 3) under a reflection across the y-axis.

Answer 1

(8,3)

Explanation:

Hello There!

This is the rule for reflection over y axis:

(x,y) -----> (-x,y)

So if the point (-8,3) we're to reflect over the y axis then the x value would stay the same but the sign would flip

So instead of -8 it would be +8

The y value does not change so the new coordinates would be

(8,3)
