Question

The point (3, 2) is reflected in the y-axis and then moved a distance 5 units towards the negative side of y-axis. The coordinates of the point thus obtained are

Moderate
Solution

Reflection in the y-axis gives the new position as (–3, 2).

When it moves towards the negative side of y-axis through 5 units, then the new position is (–3, 2 – 5) i.e., (–3, –3).
