Point A in figure X has an ordered pair of (3,4)

. Figure X is reflected across the y
-axis. Samrah thinks that the coordinates for point A on the reflected figure is (3,−4)
. Is she correct? Choose 1 for yes and 2 for no.(1

1 answer

To determine the coordinates of point A after reflecting across the y-axis, we need to change the sign of the x-coordinate while keeping the y-coordinate the same.

The original point A has coordinates (3, 4). When reflected across the y-axis, the new coordinates will be:

(-3, 4)

Samrah thought the coordinates after reflection would be (3, -4), which is incorrect.

Thus, the answer is 2 (no).
