Answer:

Option A - x-axis

Explanation:

Given : A reflection maps the point (2, 3) to the point (2, -3).

To find : It is a reflection over which axis

Solution :

A reflection maps the point (2, 3) to the point (2, -3).

which means y coordinate change their sign to opposite sign

When the y coordinate change their sign then it is reflection over x-axis.

The reflection of the point (x,y) across the x-axis is the point (x,-y).

f(x,y) → f(x,-y)

Therefore, option A is correct.

A reflection maps the point (2, 3) to the point (2, -3). It is a reflection over the x-axis.
