Question

The coordinate point Q (0,-8) is reflected over the y-axis. Identify the x- and y- coordinates of its image, Q'.

The coordinates of Q' is:

(1 point)
Responses

(0,8)
(0,8)

(0,-8)
(0,-8)

(-8,0)
(-8,0)

(8,0)

Answer 1

To reflect the point Q (0, -8) over the y-axis, we need to change the sign of the x-coordinate while keeping the y-coordinate the same.

Since the x-coordinate of Q is 0, reflecting it over the y-axis will still result in an x-coordinate of 0.

Thus, the coordinates of the image point Q' after reflection are (0, -8).

Therefore, the answer is:

(0, -8)
