Circle X is shown. Line segment X Y is a radius. Line segment Y Z is a tangent that intersects the circle at point Y. A line is

drawn from point Z to point X and goes through a point on the circle. The length of the line segment from point X to the point on the circle is 8, and the length of the line segment from the point on the circle to point Z is 9.
What must be the length of ZY in order for ZY to be tangent to circle X at point Y?

Problem 2.191 A researcher receives 93 containers of oxygen. Of those containers, 20 have oxygen that is not ionized and the res
Ahat [919]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there are 20 non ionized containers and 73 ionized containers

Two samples are drawn without replacement

a) the probability that the first one selected is not ionized=\frac{20}{93} =0.215

b)  the probability that the second one selected is not ionized given that the first one was ionized

= When first one was ionized we got left over as 20 and 72

Hence = \frac{20}{92} =0.217

c) If with replacement left over 20 and 73 and hence prob = 0.215 as in part a

d) the probability that both are ionized=\frac{73C2}{93C2} =0.614

clara wants to run a total of 5 1/2 miles each lap around the track is 0.25 miles. how many laps around the track does clara nee
NemiM [27]

Answer:

22 laps

Step-by-step explanation:

Clara wants to run 5 1/2 miles, and the track is only 0.25 miles long. This is a fairly easy question, you just need to figure out how many times 5 1/2 goes into 0.25, because she wants to run that amount of miles (I could never run that much).

I hope that answers your question so you understand, and I hope you have a great rest of your day! :)
