Answer:

The coordinates of point B are (4,3)

Explanation:

Plot point A on a grid

Find the y-axis (vertical line)

Count how many units it take for you to get from point A to the y-axis

Then, from the spot on the y-axis you landed on, count the same number of units to get point B

OR

Look at the quadrants. The quadrant you are in is number two. The coordinates will always be (-,+)

If you cross the y-axis you'll be in quadrant number one. These coordinates will always be (+,+)

Since you know the numbers HAVE TO STAY THE SAME during a reflection. Then the only answer you can get it (4,3)
