ANSWER :

(-3, 2)

EXPLANATION :

Note that the coordinates when reflecting an image across the y-axis will be :


(x,y)\rightarrow(-x,y)

The sign of the x coordinate will change.

From the problem, the coordinates of B is (3, 2)

The coordinates of it after reflecting across the y-axis will be :


(3,2)\rightarrow(-3,2)

The answer is (-3, 2)
