Question

point a is located at (-3,5) on the coordinate plane. point a is reflected over the y - axis to create point a. point a is then reflected over the x - axis to create point a. what ordered pair describes the location of a? answer attempt 1 out of 2 a( , )

Explanation:

Step1: Reflect over y - axis

When reflecting a point $(x,y)$ over the $y$-axis, the rule is $(-x,y)$. Given $A(-3,5)$, then $A'=(3,5)$.

Step2: Reflect over x - axis

When reflecting a point $(x,y)$ over the $x$-axis, the rule is $(x, -y)$. Since $A'=(3,5)$, then $A''=(3,-5)$.

Answer:

$(3,-5)$
