When a point \((x, y)\) is reflected across the y-axis, the x-coordinate changes sign while the y-coordinate remains the same.

For point K with coordinates \((6, 3)\):

  • The new x-coordinate will be \(-6\).
  • The y-coordinate remains \(3\).

Therefore, the new coordinates for the reflected point K would be \((-6, 3)\).

The correct response is:

(−6, 3)
