Question

point c is located at (3, 2) on the coordinate plane. point c is reflected over the y-axis to create point c. point c is then reflected over the x-axis to create point c. what ordered pair describes the location of c?
answer attempt 1 out of 2
c(□, □)

Explanation:

Step1: Reflect over the y - axis

When reflecting a point \((x,y)\) over the \(y\) - axis, the rule is \((x,y)\to(-x,y)\).
For point \(C(3,2)\), after reflection over the \(y\) - axis, \(C'\) has coordinates \((- 3,2)\).

Step2: Reflect over the x - axis

When reflecting a point \((x,y)\) over the \(x\) - axis, the rule is \((x,y)\to(x,-y)\).
For point \(C'(-3,2)\), after reflection over the \(x\) - axis, \(C''\) has coordinates \((-3,-2)\).

Answer:

\((-3,-2)\)
