Question

graph the image of s(-4, 8) after a reflection over the y - axis.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall reflection rule

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

Step2: Apply the rule

Given point $S(-4,8)$, when we apply the rule, $x=-4$ and $y = 8$. So, $-x=-(-4)=4$ and $y$ remains $8$. The new point is $(4,8)$.

Answer:

The image of $S(-4,8)$ after reflection over the $y - axis$ is the point $(4,8)$. To graph it, find the point where $x = 4$ and $y=8$ on the coordinate - plane.
