Question

Trapezoid TUVW is shown on the coordinate plane below.

Trapezoid TUVW on the coordinate plane with ordered pairs at T 4, 6, at U 7, 6, at V 7, 3, at W 2, 3.

If trapezoid T'U'V'W' represents trapezoid TUVW reflected over the y-axis, the ordered pair of W' is ___________. (Note: You must include parentheses, a comma, and a space after the comma when typing the ordered pair.)

Answer for Blank 1:

Answer 1

Do you know what reflected over the y-axis means?

Answer 2

i have no idea. im sooooo bad at math. it just wont prosses

Answer 3

Ok, well, it basically means, imagine a mirror where the y-axis is.

Answer 4

ohh! so it would be ... -6,-2 ?

Answer 5

What is the coordinate of W?

Answer 6

uhm -2 ?

Answer 7

It needs both an x and a y.
W is at (2, 3) because it's at 2 on the x axis and 3 on the y axis.

Answer 8

So if you mirror W over the y-axis, look at the picture. X will become negative, and Y won't change.

Answer 9

so it would be ... -2,3 ?

Answer 10

Yes!

Answer 11

great !! thank you, are you busy or could you help me with another one ?

Answer 12

I can.

Answer 13

what is the line that goes up and down? is it x or y?

Answer 14

I don't know what you're asking.

Answer 15

like on a coordinate plane theres the horazontal and virtican line, which one is x and y ?

Answer 16

Oh. The horizontal one is the x axis. The vertical one is the y axis.

Answer 17

thats what i thought ! thank you !
