So if OP is a segment joining center O to point P, the MN is touching the circle on point P so it would be line MN.

Answer: Line MN

Step-by-step explanation: Line MN is tangential to the circle at point P. This means that Line MN touches the circle at exactly one point, point P without entering the circle's interior. Tangents are straight line and the point at which Line MN touches the circle is known as the point of tangency. This tangent is perpendicular to the radius of the circle at the point of tangency (point P). Tangents are also base principles to many theorems, constructions and proofs.

We form a committee of 8 people, to be chosen from 15 women and 12 men. (a) How many possible committee can be formed
eimsori [14]

Using the combination formula, it is found that 2,220,075 committees can be formed.

The order in which the people are chosen is not important, hence, the <em>combination formula</em> is used to solve this question.

<h3>Combination formula: </h3>

C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by:

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

In this problem, 8 people are chosen from a set of 12 + 15 = 27, hence:

C_{27,8} = \frac{27!}{8!19!} = 2220075

2,220,075 committees can be formed.

A random sample of adult female reaction times has a sample mean of x¯=394.3 milliseconds and sample standard deviation of s=84.
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

99.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that mean (μ) = 394.3 ms and standard deviation (σ) = 84.6 ms.

The empirical rule states that for a normal distribution:

  1. 68% falls within one standard deviation (μ ± σ)
  2. 95% falls within two standard deviation (μ ± 2σ)
  3. 99.7% falls within three standard deviation (μ ± 3σ)

one standard deviation = 394.3 ± 84.6 = (309.7, 478.9). 68% falls within 309.7 and 478.9 ms

two standard deviation = 394.3 ± 2 × 84.6 = (225.1, 563.5). 95% falls within 225.1 and 563.5 ms

three standard deviation = 394.3 ± 3 × 84.6 = (140.5, 648.1). 99.7% falls within 140.5 and 648.1 ms

If you flip a fair coin 10 times and it lands heads up 5 times, this would result in 50% probability of the coin landing heads u
Shtirlitz [24]
This is an example of empirical probability, although it gives the same ratio as a theoretical probability, because we based the result on our experiment
