Answer:

so i have a little trick for you. Reflecting across the x axis is just turning (x,y) to (x, -y)

Reflecting across the y axis is just turning (x, y) to (-x, y)

If we substitute that in we can figure it out

so

(0, 3) we have to turn it to (x, -y), so it would end up being (0, -3). That is the reflection axross the x axis.

(-4,5) we have to turn it to (-x,y) which will be (4,5) because a negative and a negative is positive. so (4,5) is the ordered pair reflected across the y axis! Hope it helps :D
