(−6, 3)
and (−3, −1)

left parenthesis negative 6 comma 3 right parenthesis and left parenthesis negative 3 comma negative 1 right parenthesis

(−6,−3)
and (−3, 1)

Answer 1

Reflecting across the y-axis changes (x,y) to (−x,y).

So (6, −3) → (−6, −3) and (3, 1) → (−3, 1).

Answer: (−6, −3) and (−3, 1).
