The warming of the Earth due to buildup of carbon dioxide and other gases that help trap energy is termed the greenhouse effect.

Because the exchange of incoming and outgoing radiation that warms the earth because heat trapped is close to Earth's surface by “greenhouse gases.” These heat-trapping gases can be thought of as a blanket wrapped around Earth, keeping the planet toastier than it would be without them.

Green house gases:

1) Carbon dioxide (CO2)

2) Methane (CH4)

3) Nitrous oxide (N2O)

4) Industrial gases:

    a) Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs)

    b) Perfluorocarbons (PFCs)

    c) Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6)

    d) Nitrogen trifluoride (NF3)

The concentration of greenhouse gases is increasing in large part because of the combustion of fossil fuels. Key sources of chlorofluorocarbons are solvents, refrigerants, and propellants.

Carla observa en una tienda la promoción de "2x1" en juegos de sábanas. Asimismo, advierte que si tiene la tarjeta de esta tiend
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

412.8

Explanation:

The price of one set of sheet is

p=129

Here Carla wants to buy 8 sets of sheets; however, there is a 2x1 discount, this means that the price she pays will be the price of only 4 sets of sheets, so:

P=4p=4(129)=516

However, we are also told that there is an additional 20% discount.

The amount of the discount is:

d=0.20P = 0.20(516)=103.2

So the discounted price will be:

P'=P-d=516-103.2=412.8

So, Carla will pay 412.8 soles.
