Answer: Option D is the correct option.

Explanation:

We need to find which of the following statements are true about points (5,3) and (5,-3) is accurate.

We are given a point (5,3)

and another point (5,-3)

We know that reflection over the x-axis states that the value of the y-coordinate will be negated while the x-coordinate value remains the same.

In our case, for the first point (5,3) the coordinates are x=5, y=3

The other point (5,-3) the coordinates are: x=5, y=-3

The x-coordinate value remains the same while, the y-coordinate value is negated (negative)

So, we can say that the points are reflections of each other over the x-axis.
