Question

b is the image of the point b after a reflection.
b(2, -3) → b(2, 3)
over which axis was point b reflected?
x - axis y - axis

Explanation:

Step1: Recall reflection rules

When reflecting a point \((x,y)\) over the \(x -\)axis, the rule is \((x,y)\to(x, - y)\). When reflecting over the \(y -\)axis, the rule is \((x,y)\to(-x,y)\).

Step2: Analyze the given points

For point \(B(2,-3)\) and its image \(B'(2,3)\), the \(x -\)coordinate remains the same (\(x = 2\)), and the \(y -\)coordinate changes sign (\(y=-3\) becomes \(y = 3\)).

Answer:

\(x-\)axis
