1) To determine a reflection across the x-axis, the rule to be followed is

Pre-Image Image

(x,y) --------------------> (x, -y)

A reflection across the y-axis follows this one:

Pre-Image Image

(x,y) --------------------> (-x, y)

2) Let's pick one point from the pre-image and the image on the graph

Since A (-2,0) and F (1,-3) then we cannot state that there was a reflection across the x-axis or y-axis.

3) The answer is neither
