ANSWER:

Point k is reflected across the y axis to create point k'

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph we can see that point k has a negative x-cordinate, so option A is wrong.

Also, point K is located in quadrant II, not in quadrant IV

Point K is not reflected across the x-axis to create K'. For reflection across x-axis to occur, the point (x,y) across the x axis will change to (x, -y).

The point K is reflected across the y axis to create poin K'. We can see from the graph that the reflection of the point (x,y) across the y axis is the point (-x, y)
