When a line is a tangent to a circle then the point of a tangent on a circle is perpendicular and also equal to the radius

So for perpendicular.

                                            P = \frac{ax+by+c}{\sqrt{a^2 + b^2} }

4y + 3x - 44 = 0

So, a = 4

      b = 3

      c = -44

      x = 5

      y = 1

Putting the values in the formula, we get

P = -4.2

Since the radius of the circle 5 is not equal  to P, The line is not a tangent to the circle.

A biologist tracked the growth of a strain of bacteria, as shown in the graph.

Answer:

Part A -> Function

Part B -> Function

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Concept</u>

A relationship is a function only if there's a single y value corresponding to an x value. It can have the same y value for different x values but it <em>must not have multiply y values for a single x value</em>.

Below is an example

<u>Function</u>                                        <u>Not a Function</u>

<u>x</u>           <u>y</u>                                        <u>x</u>           <u>y</u>

1           5                                        1            5

2          6                                        2           7

3          5                                         1           6

<u>Part A</u>

Looking at the given graph, we see that the relationship has a single y value corresponding to an x value and so it is a function.

<u>Part B</u>

If there was the same number of bacteria for two consecutive hours it would mean the same y value for different x values. So, it would still remain a function.
