I apologize for the confusion in my previous responses. Let's correct that:
If point A has coordinates (x, y), when reflected over the x-axis, the y-coordinate becomes negative, while the x-coordinate stays the same. Therefore, if the coordinates of point A are (x, y), then the coordinates of its image A' after being reflected over the x-axis would be (x, -y).
Since point A is not given in this question, the coordinates cannot be determined from the information provided. Therefore, the correct answer should be:
D. It cannot be determined without knowing the coordinates of point A.
