When a point 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 x-coordinate 6 becomes -6.
  • The y-coordinate stays 3.

Thus, the new coordinates after reflecting point K across the y-axis are (-6, 3).

So the correct response is \((-6, 3)\).
