Question

point a is located at (6, -2) on the coordinate plane. point a is reflected over the y - axis to create point a. what ordered pair describes the location of a?

Explanation:

Step1: Recall reflection rule

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

Step2: Apply rule to point A

Given point $A(6, - 2)$, for $x = 6$ and $y=-2$, applying the rule gives $A'(-6,-2)$.

Answer:

$A'(-6,-2)$
