When a point is reflected in the y-axis, the x-coordinate changes sign while the y-coordinate remains the same.
For the point (4, 1):
- The x-coordinate (4) becomes -4.
- The y-coordinate (1) remains 1.
So, the coordinates of the image after reflection in the y-axis are (-4, 1).
The correct answer is D. (-4, 1).
