Question

the point (4,1) is reflected in the y - axis. what are the coordinates of its image? (1 point)
(-6,2)
(1,-4)
(-4,1)
(4,1)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall reflection rule

When a point $(x,y)$ is reflected over the y - axis, the rule is $(x,y)\to(-x,y)$.

Step2: Apply the rule

For the point $(4,1)$, where $x = 4$ and $y=1$, applying the rule gives $(-4,1)$.

Answer:

$(-4,1)$
