An illustration shows a coordinate plane. The x-axis and the y-axis range from negative 6 to 6 in one unit increments. Eight points are plotted on the plane. Two quadrilaterals are graphed on the plane. Four points are plotted in the first quadrant. Point A is plotted at the coordinates left parenthesis 3 comma 6 right parenthesis, Point B is plotted at left parenthesis 3 comma 2 right parenthesis, point C is plotted at left parenthesis 6 comma 2 right parenthesis, and point D is plotted at left parenthesis 5 comma 6 right parenthesis. Points A and B, points B and C, points C and D, and points D and A are connected by dotted line segments to form quadrilateral A B C D. Four unlabeled points are plotted in the second quadrant at the coordinates left parenthesis negative 2 comma 6 right parenthesis, left parenthesis negative 2 comma 2 right parenthesis, left parenthesis negative 5 comma 2 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis negative 4 comma 6 right parenthesis. The four points are connected by line segments to form a quadrilateral.

To determine how to correct a reflection over the y-axis, we need to examine how each point of the original figure would be reflected.
Given the coordinates of quadrilateral ABCD:
- Point A (3, 6) reflects to (-3, 6)
- Point B (3, 2) reflects to (-3, 2)
- Point C (6, 2) reflects to (-6, 2)
- Point D (5, 6) reflects to (-5, 6)
The reflected points in the second quadrant based on the description:
- (−2, 6)
- (−2, 2)
- (−5, 2)
- (−4, 6)
When we compare the reflected points, we see that point C reflects to (-6, 2), but it appears to be plotted at (-5,2) in the second quadrant. Similarly, point D reflects to (-5, 6), but corresponds with (-4,6).
Therefore, it seems that the reflected figure is misaligned by 1 unit to the right, as observed by the coordinates of the points.
To correct this reflection, I would suggest the response:
**Shift the reflected figure 1 unit to the left.**
This will correctly position the reflected points in their appropriate locations.
