When a point is reflected over the y-axis, the x-coordinate changes sign while the y-coordinate remains the same.

For the point P(−2, 7):

  • The x-coordinate (−2) changes to 2, and the y-coordinate (7) stays the same.

Thus, the reflected point P′ is P′(2, 7).

The correct response is: P′(2, 7).
