Answer: FIRST OPTION
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem you must apply the Intersecting Secant-Tangent Theorem. By definition, when a secant line and a tangent lline and a secant segment are drawn to a circle from an exterior point:

The total measure of the secant shown is:

If the radius is 7, then the diameter is:

Therefore:

You also know that:

Keeping the above on mind, you can substitute values and solve for x:

Distributive, carry the number 2 to the x and the y leaving 2x+2y
The distance she rides increases by 1/4 every 1 minute.
It is C
all the other options have positive slopes
