Answer:
d. x-axis
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider a point on curve P and its (nearest) image on curve P'. The midpoint between those points is on the line of reflection. That line is the x-axis.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
The curve is symmetrical about the y-axis, so each point on P also has an image point that is its reflection across the origin. The reflection of P could be across both the x- and y-axes, or (equivalently) across the origin. We don't know the meaning of "xy-axis", so we suspect that is a red herring. The best choice here is "x-axis."
The value that would make the ratios equal to 4 to 10... I believe it would be 2 to 5
There are 6720 ways by 8 distinguishable books be placed in 5 shelves.
According to statement
The number of books (n) is 8
The number of shelves (r) is 5
Now, we find the ways by which the 8 books be placed in 5 distinguishable shelves
From Permutation formula
P(n,r) = n! / (n-r)!
Substitute the values then
P(n,r) = 8! / (8-5)!
P(n,r) = (8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1) / (3*2*1)
P(n,r) = 8*7*6*5*4
P(n,r) = 6720
So, there are 6720 ways by 8 distinguishable books be placed in 5 shelves.
