The Rate of movement of the Pacific Plate will be 37.87cm per year.
Underneath the Pacific Ocean is an oceanic tectonic plate known as the Pacific Plate. It is the largest tectonic plate at 103 million km2. The Farallon, Phoenix, and Izanagi Plate triple junction are where the plate initially formed 190 million years ago.
From the information given, the following can be deduced:
Distance = 500 km = 50000000cm
Time = 1.32 million years = 1320000 years.
Therefore, the rate of plate movement will be (i.e. speed) :
(speed) = Distance / Time
(speed) = 50000000 / 1320000.
(speed) = 37.87 cm/yr

<h3>Peruvian adaptations to their physical environment</h3>
Explanation:
The Peruvians adapted to their natural environment of high altitude mountains like the Andes. The mountains created environmental challenges like low temperature, decreased precipitation, poor thin soil etc.
The Peruvians utilized the mountains in the most sustainable and efficient way both for agriculture as well as irrigation purposes. They followed terrace agriculture along the high mountain regions and built aqueducts to supply water for drinking and irrigation.
The agricultural terraces were constructed in such a way it received a good amount of sunlight even though sunlight was blocked by the surrounding high mountains. The crops were spaced widely to ensure proper sunlight and crop growth.
The irrigation system through aqueducts was constructed to prevent flooding.
I’m pretty sure you just add AB to BC, since they are all points on a line, those two segments add together to get the value of AC. Therefore, 12+16= 28, so AC=28
I think that it is a fixed cost because a variable cost changes when the amount of supply changes. Since the farmer has to pay the same rent then it is a fixed cost.
