Question

question point a is located at (-3,5) on the coordinate plane. point a is reflected over the y - axis to create point a. point a is then reflected over the x - axis to create point a. what ordered pair describes the location of a? answer attempt 1 out of 2 a (, ) submit answer show examples

Explanation:

Step1: Reflect over the y - axis

When reflecting a point \((x,y)\) over the \(y\) - axis, the rule is \((x,y)\to(-x,y)\). Given \(A(-3,5)\), after reflection over the \(y\) - axis, \(A'=(3,5)\).

Step2: Reflect over the x - axis

When reflecting a point \((x,y)\) over the \(x\) - axis, the rule is \((x,y)\to(x, - y)\). Using \(A'=(3,5)\), after reflection over the \(x\) - axis, \(A''=(3,-5)\).

Answer:

\((3,-5)\)
