Answer:
This is a reflection about the x-axis.
Step-by-step explanation:
A reflection about the x-axis has the rule
[x,y]-> [x,-y].
Therefore
M[x,y] = [x,-y}
Let M=
|a b|
|c d|
Then the matrix multiplication gives
ax+by=x.............(1)
cx+dy=-y............(2)
Solving the previous equations (1) and (2) gives
a=1, b=0
c=0, d=-1
giving M as
|1 0|
|0 -1|
Answer:
C. 25:4
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of plants in Robert's garden = 8 + 4 + 16 + 22
= 50
Number of tomato plants in Robert's garden = 8
Ratio of total number of plants to the number of tomato plants = 50 : 8
Simplify
50 : 8 = 25:4
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
It is important to remember the following:

In this case you can observe in the figure that "x" is an Angle formed by two chords, therefore, you can find its value applying the formula.
Therefore, the value of "x" is this:

Answer:
Choice A
1/17; no, they are dependent events
============================================
Explanation:
There are 13 spades and 52 cards total. So 13/52 = 1/4 is the probability of drawing one spade
If we do not replace the card we pull out, then the probability of another spade is 12/51 since there are 12 spades left out of 51 total.
Multiply the fractions 1/4 and 12/51 to get
(1/4)*(12/51) = (1*12)/(4*51) = 12/204 = 1/17
The two events are not independent because the second event (pulling out a second spade) depends entirely on what happens in the first event (pulling out a first spade). The fact that the probability is altered indicates we have dependent events.
