Question

next, reflect point d over the y - axis. we’ll call the image of this reflection point e.
original point image
c (8,2) d (8,-2)
d (8,-2) e

Explanation:

Step1: Recall reflection rule

The rule for reflecting a point $(x,y)$ over the $y - axis$ is $(-x,y)$.

Step2: Apply rule to point D

Given point $D=(8, - 2)$, where $x = 8$ and $y=-2$. After reflection over the $y - axis$, the new $x$ - coordinate is $-8$ and the $y$ - coordinate remains the same. So the coordinates of point $E$ are $(-8,-2)$.

Answer:

$(-8,-2)$
