When a point is reflected over the y-axis, the x-coordinate changes sign, while the y-coordinate remains the same.
The original point \( Q(-2, 2) \) consists of:
- x-coordinate: -2
- y-coordinate: 2
Reflecting over the y-axis:
- The new x-coordinate will be \( -(-2) = 2 \).
- The y-coordinate remains \( 2 \).
Thus, the coordinates of the reflected point \( Q' \) are \( (2, 2) \).
So, \( Q' = (2, 2) \).
The original point \( Q(-2, 2) \) consists of:
- x-coordinate: -2
- y-coordinate: 2
Reflecting over the y-axis:
- The new x-coordinate will be \( -(-2) = 2 \).
- The y-coordinate remains \( 2 \).
Thus, the coordinates of the reflected point \( Q' \) are \( (2, 2) \).
So, \( Q' = (2, 2) \).
