6 0
The Code of Hammurabi is a well-preserved Babylonian code of law of ancient Mesopotamia, dating back to about 1754 BC (Middle Chronology). It is one of the oldest deciphered writings of significant length in the world. The sixth Babylonian king, Hammurabi, enacted the code, and partial copies exist on a 2.25 metre (7.5 ft) stone stele and consists of 282 laws, with scaled punishments, adjusting "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" (lex talionis)[1] as graded depending on social status, of slave versus free man or woman.[2]

Which statement about Chechnya is accurate?People of this region strongly supported communism.
DENIUS [597]
A = pi * r^2 A = 3.14 * 50^2 A = 7,850 square miles (area of the 50 mile broadcast signal)
A = pi * r^2A = 3.14 * 75^2A = 17,662.5 = 17,663 square miles (area of the 75 mile relayed signal)
Now we just need to subtract the 50 mile signal from the 75 mile signal, so:
17,663 - 7,850 = 9,813 square miles greater

Hope this helps :)
