<h2>
Pt 1.</h2>
Sharing an apartment with a family member (or two) can be both a relief and a cause of stress. In the end, your experience living with a family roommate depends largely on the character of that family member and you. If you get along with the family member, you may find living with him or her much more comfortable than living with a stranger or even a friend. When you know and trust a family member who lives with you, you can be yourself around your roommate and you probably won’t have to worry about stolen items or finding out your roommate is a different person to live with than he or she is to hang out with. If you’re living with a sibling, a cousin or even a parent, it’s easy to fall into the habit of falling behind in your payments. After all, “families stick together,” so some irresponsible apartment dwellers might believe their family roommate can cover a “month or two” of rent payment, which turns into a few months more. Too afraid to cause family drama, the responsible roommate let him or herself be taken advantage of.

Pt 2.</h2>
Strong and positive family relationships are enjoyable for their own sake – it just feels good to be part of a warm and loving family.
But positive family relationships are important for lots of other reasons too. They:
- help children feel secure and loved, which gives them confidence to explore their world, try new things and learn
- make it easier for your family to solve problems, resolve conflict and respect differences of opinion
- give children the skills they need to build healthy relationships of their own.

Answer:
86.7%.
Explanation:
Considering the diagram, the path of the tip of the blades is a circle.
Hence, determine the circumference of the circle.
C = 2πr = 2π * 3 ft = 6π ft.
Then determine how long the blade edges are all together.
6 in * 5 blades = 30 inches
Therefore, to determine the fraction of the circumference of 30 inches, convert circumference to inches
6π ft * (12 in ÷ 1 ft) = 72π in.
Hence, the probability of Gerald’s randomly timed shot hitting a blade of the windmill
=> 30 ÷ 72π
=> 30 ÷ [72 * (22/7)]
= 13.3%.
Finally, the probability of his shot getting past the blades is then 100 – 13.3 = 86.7%.
