Can someone help I’m not sure if I got this problem right

When a transformation maps a figure to itself, each point on the figure must map to itself, and not just the out line that "appears" to map to itself.

To see which one is the correct answer, we only have to simplify the composite transformation to a simple one, and then apply the simple transformation to the four corners of the figure.
Recall that composite transformations start from right to left, we will name the points ABCD clockwise from the top-left corner.

Also, note the following identities:
R_{180,a,b}(x,y)
=(x+a,y+b) \circle (-x,-y) \circle (x-a,y-b)
=(2a-x, 2b-y)
For example, rotate point C(7,-9) by 180 about (5,5) 
R{180,5,5}(7,-9) = (2*5-7, 2*5-(-9)=(3,19)

Similarly,
Sy_{y=b}(x,y)
=(x,y+b)\circle(x,-y)\circle(x,y-b)
=(x,2b-y)

The four points of the rectangle are
A(5,-5)
B(7,-5)
C(7,-9)
D(5,-9)

Applying the above transformations, we will find

Case A Rotate 180 about (5,5), reflect across y=5
we can use the shorthand (x,y)->(10-x,y) to draw the final position
Since x does not map to x, and y does not map to y, this is not the correct transformation. The image of points A, B, C, D are
A(5,-5)
B(3,-5)
C(3,-9)
D(5,-9)
You can locate the image either by the above results, or actually transform (first rotate, then reflect) and still get the same results. 

Case B: rotate 180 about (6,-7), reflect across x=5 gives the transformation
(x,y)->(12-x, y+24) giving the image
A(7,19)
B(5,19)
C(5,15)
D(7,15)

Case C: rotate 180 about (5,5), reflect across y=-7 gives the transformation
(x,y)->(10-x,y-24) and the image
A(5,-29)
B(3,-29)
C(3,-33)
D(5,-33)

Case D: rotate 180 about (6,-7), reflect across y=-7 gives the transformation
(x,y)->(12-x,y) and the image
A(7,-5)
B(5,-5)
C(5,-9)
D(7,-9)

We see that in NONE of the cases that we have all points mapping onto itself, i.e. (x,y)->(x,y).  So we can say that NONE of the answer choices will map all points onto itself.

HOWEVER, the closest one is case D, where the image actually coincides with the preimage, giving the impression that it maps onto itself.
An examination of the coordinates will reveal that pairs of nodes actually coincide, A and B", B and A", C and D", D and C", giving the APPEARANCE that the rectangle maps onto itself.

Attached is the process of making the transformation graphically, for case A.

Note: A single reflection will never map ALL points onto itself  (except those that lie on the line of reflection).  So we could have foreseen the abnormal behaviour.  On the other hand, combinations of translations, rotations, or even number of reflections COULD end up mapping all points on the preimage onto itself.

Two candidates are randomly selected. a. List all the possible outcomes. b. What is the probability that both are qualified? c.
steposvetlana [31]

Question:

Four candidates are to be interviewed for a job. Two of them, numbered 1 and 2, are qualified, and the other two, numbered 3 and 4, are not.

Answer:

a. S = {12,13,14,23,24,34}

b. 1/6

c. ⅔

Step-by-step explanation:

Let S = Sample Space i.e. total possible outcomes

Given that candidates 1 and 2 are qualified and 3 and 4 are not qualified.

If two candidates are randomly selected. The list of all possible outcomes is as follows

S:{12,13,14,23,24,34}

And the number of outcomes is 6

b. What is the probability that both are qualified?

The event that both are qualified is given as {12} or {21}

From the sample space in (a) above, there's only one occurrence of {12} = 1

So, the probability is calculated as 1/6

c. What is the probability that exactly one is qualified?

The event that one one is qualified is given as {13,14,23,24}

Total = 4

Probability = 4/6

Probability = ⅔

Pls helpppp!!! I will give brainliest.
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain represents the x-values

The range represents the y-values

Domain             Range

  3                        7

                            8

                            -2

                             4

                             1

This relation is not a function because the domain value was used more than one time.

Find the equation of the lines perpendicular and parallel to 2x-3y=8 line through the point (-2,-4)
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

y= -1.5x-7 is the equation of the perpendicular line

Here's why:

when we convert 2x-3y=8 to standard form, we get y= 2/3x-8/3. This means the perpendicular line will have a slope of the negative reciprocal of the original one, so the perpendicular slope is -1.5. When we substitute the points (-2,-4) into the equation y=-1.5x+b, we get a b value of -7. So the perpendicular line equation is y= -1.5x-7. You can't the parallel line equation with the points (-2,-4) as it is part of the line 2x-3y=8.
