reflection in the x-axis takes (x,y) --> (x,-y)
so, just change the sign of the y-coordinate of each point.
e.g. (4,3) --> (4,-3)
so, just change the sign of the y-coordinate of each point.
e.g. (4,3) --> (4,-3)

(4,3) is the answer?

No. The answer is you change the y-coordinate signs of the points you were given! e.g. means "for example".
