On a coordinate grid, point A is located in the first quadrant. Point B is located at ( negative 1 over 2 , 3). Point C is a reflection of point B across the y-axis. Which graph shows these three points? (1 point)

A coordinate grid from negative 3 to positive 3 on both axes is drawn in increments of 1 over 2. Point A is plotted 2 grid lines to the right of the y-axis and 4 grid lines above the x-axis. Point B is plotted at 1 grid line to the left of the y-axis and 6 grid lines above the x-axis. Point C is plotted at 1 grid line to the left of the y-axis and 6 grid lines below the x-axis.

While the written description doesn't give the exact location of point A, we do know that it is within the first quadrant (as pictured). We can eliminate the last two options, as they put point A "left of the y-axis".

The exact locations of points B and C can be inferred from the written description, and only one of the answer choices match

Both of the first two options put point B in the same location. The first option places point C in quadrant 3, while the second option puts point C in quadrant 4. You can see for yourself which is correct.

I have to disagree with LilyEelish's suggestion, though I appreciate the response. It does not seem to match with the answer choices given, as far as I can tell.

THE EXPLANATION: Each unit is represented by 2 grid lines. This means the coordinates of B (3, -1/2) will be 2×(3, -1/2) = (6, -1) grid lines. The reflection of B across the y-axis to get C will change the sign of the x-coordinate, so C is (-6, -1) in terms of grid lines. (Positive is above or right; negative is below or left.)
I'm prolly still wrong an I am sorry, but thank you for giving out the right answer @SmokeyBrown

I agree with the explanation, but not with the premise. I think the coordinate for B would be (-1/2, 3) instead of (3, -1/2) as given in the written portion of the question. Otherwise, the reasoning seems sound.
