Question

point a is located at (-1, -4) on the coordinate plane. point a is reflected over the y - axis create point a. what ordered pair describes the location of a? answer attempt 1 out of 2 a()

Explanation:

Step1: Recall reflection rule

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

Step2: Apply the rule to point A

Given point $A(-1,-4)$, where $x = - 1$ and $y=-4$. After reflection over the $y$-axis, $x$ becomes $-(-1)=1$ and $y$ remains $-4$.

Answer:

$A'(1,-4)$
