Given:
<span>mantle layer of earth begins about 70 kilometers underneath the surface
</span><span>outer core begins about 2970 kilometers underneath the surface

Since we need to find the position of each layer </span><span>relative to the surface, the surface will serve as the point of origin or 0. Below the surface infers a negative value. So, Mantle layer is -70 km from the surface while outer core is -2970 km under the surface.

Comparing -70 and -2970, -70 has a greater value than -2970. The nearer the number is to the origin or 0, the higher its value.

Comparing the absolute greater value of -70 and -2970, -2970 has a greater absolute value. This is because absolute value is the positive value of the number. Absolute value of -70 is 70 while absolute value of -2970 is 2970. Thus, -2970 has a greater absolute value. </span>

Answer: D) Flat area with a large number of plants

The roots of the plants hold in the soil, which prevents/reduces erosion.

The steeper slope means gravity pulls down the soil material faster, since there is less ground in the way to hold it up, so to speak. So flatter areas are less prone to erosion compared to steeper areas.

So that's why overall, flatter areas with lots of plants would have the least erosion.

You pick a card at random. Without putting the first card back, you
Inga [223]

First, we need the probability of picking an odd number.

There are 5 cards in total, and 3 odd cards (3, 5, and 7).

That means that the probability that we'll draw an odd card would be \frac{3}{5}.

Then, we have 4 cards left, and 2 even cards (4 and 6), meaning that the probability that we draw an even card will be \frac{2}{4} or \frac{1}{2}.

To find the probability that these would happen in consecutive draws, we just multiply the probabilities together.

\frac{3}{5}*\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{10} or 0.3.

To convert this into a percentage, we multiply the decimal by 100.

0.3*100=30.

So the probability of picking an odd number and then picking an even number is 30%.

Hope this helps!

A test subject is randomly selected for a diabetes test. What is the probability of getting a subject who is not diabetic, given
Verizon [17]
                                           Positive Test           Negative Test
Subject is diabetic             35                                  3                      38
Subject is not diabetic        5                                28                       33
Total                                      40                               31                       71

Probability of getting a subject that is not diabetic, given that the result is negative. 

28/31 = 0.903 or 90.3%

The answer is 90.3%.
