  E(-9, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The line of reflection is is the perpendicular bisector of the segment between the original point and its reflected image.

In the figure, the y-axis is halfway between points A and E, and is a vertical line perpendicular to the horizontal segment AE. Point E has the same y-coordinate as point A, but its x-coordinate has the opposite sign.

  (x, y) ⇒ (-x, y) . . . . . . reflection across the y-axis

  A(9, 2) ⇒ E(-9, 2) . . . . reflection of point A across the y-axis

You get point E when you reflect A across the y-axis.

Additional comment

When A is reflected across the line y=x, it becomes point B. When it is reflected across the origin, it becomes point C. Reflection across the x-axis maps point A to point D.

  (x, y) ⇒ (y, x) . . . . reflection across y=x

  (x, y) ⇒ (-x, -y) . . . reflection across the origin

  (x, y) ⇒ (x, -y) . . . . reflection across the x-axis

  (x, y) ⇒ (-y, -x) . . . reflection across the line y = -x
