Answer:

3rd Option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A circle with Center is O.

          Figure is also Given.

To find: Tangent to the circle.

Tangent is a line which just touches circle at one point and passes from outside of circle.

Option 1).

Segment OP is radius of the circle. It is in interior of the circle.

Thus, This is not Tangent.

Option 2).

line ST is Secant to the circle as it passes through circle and intersect at two points. It is in interior of the circle and also in exterior of circle.

Thus, This is not Tangent.

Option 3).

Line MN is Tangent according to the definition of Tangent.

Thus, This is Tangent.

Option 4).

Segment QR is chord of the circle. It is in interior of the circle.

Thus, This is not Tangent.

Therefore, 3rd Option is correct.

A room has three lightbulbs. Each one has a 30% probability of burning out within the month. Write the probability as a percenta
lesantik [10]

Answer:

97.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three bulbs be A, B and C respectively.

Let P(A) denote the probability that the first bulb will burn out

Let P(B) denote the probability that the second bulb will burn out

Let P(C) denote the probability that the third bulb will burn out

Now, we are told that Each one has a 30% probability of burning out within the month.

Thus;

P(A) = P(B) = P(C) = 30% = 0.3

Now, probability that at the end of the month at least one of the bulbs will be lit will be given as;

P(at least one bulb will be lit) = 1 - (P(A) × P(B) × P(C))

P(at least one bulb will be lit) = 1 - (0.3 × 0.3 × 0.3) = 0.973 = 97.3%

Mila has biked 10 miles in 1.5 hours if Mila continues at the same rate,how many miles will she bike in 3 and a 1/2 hours?
Viefleur [7K]

Mike biked 10 miles in 1.5 hours. Mila bikes at the same rate too.

Therefore, she will bike x miles in 3.5 hours

(10/1.5) = (x/3.5)

You cross multiply

1.5x = 10 x 3.5

1.5x = 35

x = 35/1.5

x = 23 miles (approximately)

I hope this helps
