Question

point m is located at (-4, 4) on the coordinate plane. point m is reflected over the y - axis to create point m. point m is then reflected over the x - axis to create point m. what ordered pair describes the location of m?

Explanation:

Step1: Reflect over y - axis

When reflecting a point $(x,y)$ over the $y$-axis, the rule is $(-x,y)$. Given $M(-4,4)$, then $M'=(4,4)$.

Step2: Reflect over x - axis

When reflecting a point $(x,y)$ over the $x$-axis, the rule is $(x, -y)$. Since $M'=(4,4)$, then $M''=(4,-4)$.

Answer:

$(4,-4)$
