John and Max don't like maths,_____________________?

Explanation
The correct answer is "do they." This is because the question is a negative statement, stating that John and Max don't like maths. In order to form a question tag, we need to use the auxiliary verb "do" in the same tense as the main verb (don't) and invert the subject and auxiliary verb. Therefore, the correct question tag is "do they," which is used to confirm or seek agreement with the negative statement.

Mary didn't do her homework last Monday,_________________?

Explanation
The given correct answer is "did she." This is because the question is in the negative form, "Mary didn't do her homework last Monday," and in English, when we want to make a question from a negative statement, we use the auxiliary verb "did" before the subject. Therefore, the correct question form is "Did Mary do her homework last Monday?" The answer to this question would be "did she," using the auxiliary verb "did" again before the subject "she."
