Final answer:

The equation of the line of reflection is x = 8.


Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of the line of reflection, we need to determine the line that the point A (8, 7) is reflected across to become A' (8, 3).

Since the x-coordinate remains the same, we can conclude that the line of reflection is vertical.

Thus, the equation of the line of reflection is x = 8.
