Question

point p is located at (-1, 5) on the coordinate - plane. point p is reflected over the y - axis to create point p. what ordered pair describes the location of p? answer: ( , )

Explanation:

Step1: Recall reflection rule over y - axis

When a point $(x,y)$ is reflected over the y - axis, the x - coordinate changes sign and the y - coordinate remains the same.

Step2: Apply the rule to the given point

The given point is $P(-1,6)$. After reflection over the y - axis, the new x - coordinate is $-(-1)=1$ and the y - coordinate is 6. So the new point $P'$ is $(1,6)$.

Answer:

$(1,6)$
