A line contains the points (6, -3) and (3, 1). When this line is reflected across the y-axis, what are the two new points?

Question

(1 point)
• (-6, 3) and (-3, - 1)
O (-6, -3) and (3, 1)
O (-6, -3) and (-3, 1)
• (6, 3) and (3, - 1)

Answer 1

To reflect a point across the y-axis, the x-coordinate is negated while the y-coordinate remains the same.

So for the point (6, -3), the x-coordinate becomes -6 and the y-coordinate remains -3.

And for the point (3, 1), the x-coordinate becomes -3 and the y-coordinate remains 1.

Therefore, the two new points after reflecting across the y-axis are (-6, -3) and (-3, 1).

So the correct answer is: O (-6, -3) and (-3, 1)
