Maximize ab-cd.
So, we want to make ab as large as possible and cd as small as possible.

ab = 9*8 (the two biggest allowed) = 72
cd = 1*2 (the two smallest allowed) = 2

72 -2 = 70

hope this helps :)

In this food web, which group would increase in number if snakes were eliminated?
luda_lava [24]

The correct answer is - D. secondary consumers.

As the snake is a predator, it falls into the category of the tertiary consumers, which means that it mostly feeds on the secondary consumers, in this case, the mice.

If the snakes are eliminated from the suggested food chain, than the main increase in numbers will be witnessed at the secondary consumers, the mice in this case, as they will lose one of their prime predators.

Since less mice will be eaten, as the owls will be their only predator, more mice will reproduce, thus their numbers will increase significantly.

A 10-foot tree casts a 17-foot shadow directly down a slope when the angle of elevation of the sun is 42o (see figure). Find \th
inna [77]

The angle of elevation of the ground is the angle between the ground and the line of sight

The angle of elevation of the ground is 30.46 degrees

<h3>How to calculate the angle of elevation</h3>

The angle of elevation is calculated using the following tangent ratio

\tan(\theta) = \frac{10}{17}

Evaluate the quotient

\tan(\theta) = 0.5882

Take the arc tan of both sides

\theta = \tan^{-1}(0.5882)

Using a calculator, we have:

\theta = 30.46

Hence, the angle of elevation of the ground to the nearest tenth of a degree is 30.46 degrees
