Social Studies

Leto [7]3 years ago

Mayan number system is a vigesimal system- that means with a base of 20:

the correct answer is: 20, the Mayan number system is based on the number 20.

This means that a number like 360 is expressed with "18 times 20".

Scientists suggest that number systems based on 10 are inspired by the number of fingers, and number systems based on 20 could be based on fingers counted twice: after the number 10, hands would be turned upside-down.

sattari [20]

Answer: Accommodation and convergence

Explanation: accommodation and convergence is a depth cue associated with reflex action of the eye, that is, the involuntary movement of the eye in response to a particular stimulus. Accommodation convergence explains the behavior of the eye that is, changes in shape of the lens and size of pupil with respect to the distance of objects from the eye.

In 1821 what was the problem mexican leaders had with texas
Anni [7]
 The rebellions that erupted throughout Latin America to overthrow Spanish colonial rule, left Mexico with an array of problems that touched upon events in the far northern Mexican province of Texas. Economically, the country faced devastation in 1821. It stood in marked contrast to the rich colony that had promised great potential towards the end of the colonial era. Money barely circulated. Once-rich mines struggled to regain their former efficiency. Ranches and farms were no longer productive. With the economy in shambles, thousands faced unemployment. Entire areas experienced depopulation as people sought out a livelihood elsewhere. Moreover, differences over class distinctions split the nation as the landed gentry, the military, and church officials sought the preservation of the antebellum order, wherein they ruled alongside government. Additionally, many of the country's new leaders had had little prior experience in governing.
