Point MM is located at left bracket, minus, 4, comma, 4, right bracket(−4,4) on the coordinate plane. Point MM is reflected over the yy-axis to create point M, primeM

Question

′
. Point M, primeM
′
is then reflected over the xx-axis to create point M, start superscript, prime, prime, end superscriptM
′′
. What ordered pair describes the location of M, start superscript, prime, prime, end superscript, question markM
′′
?

Answer 1

The reflection over the y-axis changes the x-coordinate sign, so point M' is located at (4, 4).

The reflection over the x-axis changes the y-coordinate sign, so point M'' is located at (4, -4).

Therefore, the ordered pair that describes the location of M'' is (4, -4).
