The correct Answer is:
To find the coordinates of point A" after the two reflections, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Reflect point A(4, 6) in the origin to find point A'. The formula for reflecting a point (x, y) in the origin is: \[ (x, y) \rightarrow (-x, -y) \] For point A(4, 6): \[ A' = (-4, -6) \] ### Step 2: Reflect point A'(-4, -6) in the y-axis to find point A". The formula for reflecting a point (x, y) in the y-axis is: \[ (x, y) \rightarrow (-x, y) \] For point A'(-4, -6): \[ A" = (4, -6) \] ### Final Answer: The coordinates of point A" are (4, -6). ---
