the x-coordinate doesn't change
the sign of the y-coordinate is reversed
drawing a picture can help

correct, Scott, thanks. I have been looking for this question, I can find no record of it being removed ever. It was last posted in 2013, and before that in 2010.
Secondly, "answer it" is rather demanding for volunteers, since most are only here to help students . In short, the question was not removed, and we have no record of you IP address ever posting it. Sorry.

To reflect a point over the x-axis, we need to change the sign of the y-coordinate while keeping the x-coordinate the same.
Given point A (6, -2), we will reflect it over the x-axis by changing the sign of the y-coordinate:
The new y-coordinate will be -(-2) which simplifies to 2.
Therefore, the new coordinates of point A after reflecting it over the x-axis is (6, 2).
