Question

6 graph rectangle j k l m with j(-2, -2), k(6, -2), l(6, -7), m(-2, -7) and its image after a reflection in the y - axis. what are the coordinates of k? a) (-6, 0) atlantic city b) (6, 4) las vegas c) (-6, 0) washington d.c. d) (-6, -2) toronto e) (6, 0) the bahamas

Explanation:

Step1: Recall reflection rule

When reflecting a point (x, y) over the y - axis, the rule is (x, y)→(-x, y).

Step2: Identify original point

The original point K has coordinates (6, 4).

Step3: Apply reflection rule

For point K(6, 4), when reflected over the y - axis, x = 6 becomes - 6 and y = 4 remains the same. So the new coordinates of K' are (-6, 4).

Answer:

A. (-6, 4)
