Answer:

B) Independent

Step-by-step explanation:

Independent events:

Two events, A and B are independent, if:

$P(A \cap B) = P(A) \times P(B)$

In this question:

$P(A \cap B) = \frac{63}{200}$

$P(A) \times P(B) = \frac{9}{20}*\frac{7}{10} = \frac{9*7}{20*10} = \frac{63}{200}$

Since $P(A \cap B) = P(A) \times P(B)$ , these events are independent.

$X-(A\cup B)=(X-A)\cap(X-B)$

I'll assume the usual definition of set difference, $X-A=\{x\in X,x\not\in A\}$ .

Let $x\in X-(A\cup B)$ . Then $x\in X$ and $x\not\in(A\cup B)$ . If $x\not\in(A\cup B)$ , then $x\not\in A$ and $x\not\in B$ . This means $x\in X,x\not\in A$ and $x\in X,x\not\in B$ , so it follows that $x\in(X-A)\cap(X-B)$ . Hence $X-(A\cup B)\subset(X-A)\cap(X-B)$ .

Now let $x\in(X-A)\cap(X-B)$ . Then $x\in X-A$ and $x\in X-B$ . By definition of set difference, $x\in X,x\not\in A$ and $x\in X,x\not\in B$ . Since $x\not A,x\not\in B$ , we have $x\not\in(A\cup B)$ , and so $x\in X-(A\cup B)$ . Hence $(X-A)\cap(X-B)\subset X-(A\cup B)$ .

The two sets are subsets of one another, so they must be equal.

$X-\left(\bigcup\limits_{i\in I}A_i\right)=\bigcap\limits_{i\in I}(X-A_i)$

The proof of this is the same as above, you just have to indicate that membership, of lack thereof, holds for all indices $i\in I$ .

Proof of one direction for example:

Let $x\in X-\left(\bigcup\limits_{i\in I}A_i\right)$ . Then $x\in X$ and $x\not\in\bigcup\limits_{i\in I}A_i$ , which in turn means $x\not\in A_i$ for all $i\in I$ . This means $x\in X,x\not\in A_{i_1}$ , and $x\in X,x\not\in A_{i_2}$ , and so on, where $\{i_1,i_2,\ldots\}\subset I$ , for all $i\in I$ . This means $x\in X-A_{i_1}$ , and $x\in X-A_{i_2}$ , and so on, so $x\in\bigcap\limits_{i\in I}(X-A_i)$ . Hence $X-\left(\bigcup\limits_{i\in I}A_i\right)\subset\bigcap\limits_{i\in I}(X-A_i)$ .

Which sequence of transformations proves that shape I is similar to shape II?

4vir4ik [10]

Note that if you simply reflected it and dilated it, it would be too far to the left

note that the distances bewteen the axises in image 1 were 1 and 3in image 3,the distances are 2 and 6
seems to be 3 times
so it's the 90 counterclockwise rotation and dilation by scale factor of 3
answer is last one
