Question

question what is the image of (-7, -2) after a reflection over the y - axis? answer attempt 1 out of 2

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

For the point $(-7,-2)$, we change the sign of the $x - coordinate$. So $x=-7$ becomes $-x = 7$, and $y=-2$ remains the same.

Answer:

$(7,-2)$
