Question

A student studies the graph shown below and determines that the reflection of point a over the x - axis will result in a point at (6,3). State weather or not the student is correct and explain how correct answer can be found or confirmed.

Answer 1

The student is incorrect because if they were to reflect point A over the X-axis, this would mean they are moving it from its current quadrant to the one below. In that quadrant, the Y coordinate will be negative. So it couldn't possibly (6,3), because the 3 isn't negative.
