1. **State the problem:** We need to graph the image of rectangle JKLM after reflecting it over the y-axis.
2. **Recall the reflection rule:** Reflecting a point $(x,y)$ over the y-axis changes its coordinates to $(-x,y)$.
3. **Original vertices:**
- $J(-10,-9)$
- $K(-8,-9)$
- $L(-8,1)$
- $M(-10,1)$
4. **Apply reflection over the y-axis:**
- $J' = (-(-10), -9) = (10, -9)$
- $K' = (-(-8), -9) = (8, -9)$
- $L' = (-(-8), 1) = (8, 1)$
- $M' = (-(-10), 1) = (10, 1)$
5. **Plot the reflected rectangle:** Connect points $J'(10,-9)$, $K'(8,-9)$, $L'(8,1)$, and $M'(10,1)$ to form the reflected rectangle in the bottom-right quadrant.
**Final answer:** The image of rectangle JKLM after reflection over the y-axis has vertices at $(10,-9)$, $(8,-9)$, $(8,1)$, and $(10,1)$.
