The coordinate point Q(0,10) is reflected over the y-axis. Identify the x- and y-coordinates of its image, Q

1 answer

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

For the point \( Q(0, 10) \):

  • The x-coordinate is 0, which remains 0 when reflected.
  • The y-coordinate is 10, which also remains 10.

Thus, the image of the point \( Q(0, 10) \) after reflection over the y-axis is \( Q'(0, 10) \).

The x-coordinate of the image is 0, and the y-coordinate is 10.
