After ABCDE is reflected over the y axis, how does the distance from point B to the y axis compare to the distance from B' to the y axis.

Select all that apply

A
The distance is the same
B
The distance between B' and the y axis is greater than the distance between B and the y axis
C
The distance between B' and the y axis is shorter than the distance between B and the y axis.
