. Is she correct? Choose 1 for yes and 2 for no.(1 point)

Answer 1

To reflect a point across the y-axis, the x-coordinate changes sign while the y-coordinate remains the same.

For point A with coordinates (3, 4):

• The reflection across the y-axis will change (3, 4) to (-3, 4).

Samrah claims the coordinates of the reflected point are (3, -4), which is incorrect.

So, the answer is 2 (no).
