Three lots with parallel side boundaries extend from the avenue to the boulevard as shown in the diagram attached.
Given;
x + y + z = 140 metersAccording to the proportion theorem,

Solving for x, using cross multiplication:

Similarly,
x/40 = z/35
solving for z by cross multiplication,
z = 35x/40
z = 7x/8
Now, the third proportions,
y/30 = z/35
Solving for y,
y = 30z/35
y = 6z/7
x + y + z = 140
4y/3 + 6z/7 + 7x/8 = 140
(224y + 144z + 147x)/168 = 140
224y + 144z + 147x = 23520
Substitutoing z = 7x/8,
224y + (144 × 7x/8) + 147x = 23520
224y + 126x + 147x = 23520
224y + 273x = 23520
Now,
Substitute y = 3x/4
(224×3x/4) + 273x = 23520
168x + 273x = 23520
441x = 23520
x = 53.33
Now,
We know that
y = 3x/4
so,
y = 40
And,
z = 7x/8
Z = 46.66
I think the answer would be pesticides... i see you selected it though. was that a wring answer?
Answer:
A new mutation
Explanation:
A mutation refers to the random changes in the DNA of organisms. A mutation changes the allele and genotype frequencies by the introduction of a new allele in the gene pool.
However, mutations are not the major factor responsible for changes in the gene pool of a population as mutations are rare. The rate of mutations is very slow and does not allow it to serve as a major factor to change the allele and genotype frequencies.
Performance can be impaired by a fluid-related decrease in body weight of as little as 1 percent. Dehydration is assumed to be a major adverse effect associated with rapid loss of body mass and this impairs the level of performance in an individual.
