Answer:

D. perpendicular.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a statement and we are supposed to choose the correct option to fill in the blank for our given statement.

Since we know that tangent is a line that touches the circle exactly at one point. This point is known as point of tangency. The tangent of the circle is perpendicular to the radius of the circle at point of tangency.

Therefore, the missing word from our given statement is <u>perpendicular</u> and option D is the correct choice.

Willie and Emily each purchase one raffle ticket. If a total of seven raffle tickets are sold, what is the probability that Will
Nimfa-mama [501]

1/42

First, find the probability of Willie winning the grand prize. He has 1 ticket out of the 7 total tickets, so the probability is 1/7.

Now, find the probability of Emily winning the second prize. After the grand prize winner has been announced, there are only 6 tickets left. Emily has 1, so the probability is 1/6.

Finally, multiply the two probabilities together to find the probability that they will both happen together. To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and multiply the denominators together. This leaves us with (1 * 1) / (7 * 6), which is easy to simplify to 1/42, which is the final probability.

A large aquarium of water is being filled with a hose. Due to a problem, the sensor does not start working until some time into
stira [4]

Answer: The sensor will read 300 liters after 5 minutes.

The sensor sensor should have read 120 liters at time -7 minutes.


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The amount of water detected by sensor initially= 225 litres

Since, the hose fills the aquarium at a constant rate of 15 liters per minute.

Let x be the time , and y be reading of sensor then

y=225+15x

Therefore, the sensor reads after 5 minutes (put x=5 in the equation)= 225+5(15)=300\ liters

To find the sensor read at time -7 minutes put x=-7 in the equation, we get

y=225+15(-7)=225-105=120

Hence, the sensor should have read 120 liters at time -7 minutes.
