(6,−3)

Answer 1

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

The coordinates of point K are (6, 3).

Reflecting this point across the y-axis:

• The x-coordinate changes from 6 to -6.
• The y-coordinate remains 3.

Thus, the new coordinates for the reflected point K are (-6, 3).

The correct response is: (−6, 3)
