What is the image of (2,3)(2,3) after a reflection over the line y=-xy=−x?
otez555 [7]

Answer:

After the reflection over the line  y = -x, the image of the point is: (-3,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

When a given point is reflected over a line the point only changes place but the distance between the point and the line remains same.

Let (x,y) be a point on the plane

and

y = -x be a line on the plane

When a point is reflected over a line y = -x , the coordinates of the point are exchanged which means x becomes y and y becomes x and both are negated

So (x,y) will become (-y,-x)

Given point is:

(2,3)

After the reflection over the line  y = -x, the image of the point is: (-3,-2)

Jason inherited a piece of land from his great-uncle. Owners in the area claim that there is a 45% chance that the land has oil.
inn [45]
P ( A ) = 0.45  - probability that the land has oil,
P ( B ) = 0.8   - probability that the test predicts it
P ( A ∩ B ) = P ( A ) · P ( B ) = 0.45 · 0.8  = 0.36
Answer: The probability that the land has oil and the test predicts it is 36 %.

Juan got a new helicopter for Christmas and the time it takes to ascend to certain heights is shown above. His sister, Marla, be
Greeley [361]
Well for the first one, 
You have to find out if it is at 25 ft at one second, but since you can't you find the next best thing, find 25 feet then see how many seconds it is at.

For the second one you would have to find where they directly meet, I chose 40 and 20
40 April Sales = 20 March Sales
So this means that for every March sale you would have 2 April sales. 40/20 = 2

Please help <br><br> It’s due tonight
Natalija [7]

Answer: 18 units long

Step-by-step explanation:

In the diagram, it looks like line segment AW is 6 units long and WB is 12 units long. Because of parts-whole postulate (the whole is equal to the sum of its parts), you can add AW and WB's lengths together. 6 + 12 = 18, so the length of line segment AB is 18 units long.
