Question

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

Explanation:

Step1: Reflect over x - axis

When reflecting a point $(x,y)$ over the $x$-axis, the rule is $(x,y)\to(x, - y)$. Given $F=(5,1)$, then $F'=(5,-1)$.

Step2: Reflect over y - axis

When reflecting a point $(x,y)$ over the $y$-axis, the rule is $(x,y)\to(-x,y)$. Since $F'=(5,-1)$, then $F''=(-5,-1)$.

Answer:

$(-5,-1)$
