Answer:

see description

Step-by-step explanation:

When you reflect a point across the y-axis, the y-coordinate remains the same, but the x-coordinate is transformed into its opposite (its sign is changed). Notice that B is 5 horizontal units to the right of the y-axis, and B' is 5 horizontal units to the left of the y-axis.

Here the zeros are at (±5,0) so that's the first page, second graph.
