Question
Point K is on figure D has the coordinates (6,3)
. If it is reflected across the y
-axis, what would the new coordinates be for the reflected point K?(1 point)
Responses

(3,6)
left parenthesis 3 comma 6 right parenthesis

(6,−3)
left parenthesis 6 comma negative 3 right parenthesis

(−6,3)
left parenthesis negative 6 comma 3 right parenthesis

(−3,6)

Answer 1

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

For point K with coordinates (6, 3), the reflection across the y-axis would be:

\[
(-6, 3)
\]

Therefore, the new coordinates for the reflected point K are:

\((-6, 3)\)
