Question

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

Explanation:

Step1: Reflect over y - axis

When reflecting a point $(x,y)$ over the $y$-axis, the rule is $(-x,y)$. Given point $C(3,2)$, after reflecting over the $y$-axis, point $C'$ has coordinates $(- 3,2)$.

Step2: Reflect over x - axis

When reflecting a point $(x,y)$ over the $x$-axis, the rule is $(x,-y)$. Since $C'$ is $(-3,2)$, after reflecting $C'$ over the $x$-axis, point $C''$ has coordinates $(-3,-2)$.

Answer:

$(-3,-2)$
