Question

point c is located at (3, -6) on the coordinate plane. point c is reflected over the y - axis to create point c. what ordered pair describes the location of c?

Explanation:

Step1: Recall reflection rule over y - axis

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

Step2: Apply the rule to point C

Given point $C(3, - 6)$, where $x = 3$ and $y=-6$. After reflection over the y - axis, $x$ becomes $-x=-3$ and $y$ remains the same. So the new point $C'$ is $(-3,-6)$.

Answer:

$(-3,-6)$
