Answer:

288 miles

Explanation:

Time taken with traffic = 9 hours

Time taken without traffic = 4 hours

Speed with traffic = x mph

Speed without traffic = x+40 mph

Distance = Speed × time

Distance travelled in 9 hours

9x

Distance travelled in 4 hours

4(x+40)

Since both the distances are same

9x-4(x+40)=0\\\Rightarrow 9x-4x-160=0\\\Rightarrow 5x-160=0\\\Rightarrow x=\frac{160}{5}\\\Rightarrow x=32\ mph

Speed with traffic = 32 mph

Distance travelled = 9×32 = 288 miles

∴ Shen lives 288 miles from the mountains

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

In the context of classical conditioning, closing the door has become a(n) conditioned stimulus.

Explanation:

A conditioned stimulus, in classical conditioning, can be defined as a previously neutral stimulus that has become associated with an unconditioned stimulus, beginning to trigger a response.

It is very likely that closing a door didn't mean much to students in general (neutral). However, it was paired with the announcement of a quiz. Announcing a quiz (unconditioned) triggers a response - students feel surprised, anxious, worried, etc. After pairing up both stimuli a few times, students learn to associate them. Now, closing the door is a conditioned stimulus. Even if the professor does not announce a quiz, students will feel anxious and worried just by watching him close the door.

Fed [463]

Answer:

The President.

Explanation:

The United States Armed Forces, made up of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard, Space Force and Marines, are the body in charge of providing national defense against external aggressions from other nations or from foreign insurgent or terrorist groups.

The President of the United States, according to Article II of the Constitution, exercises the role of commander-in-chief of the armed forces, which is why he is the one who has the final authority in all matters related to the military operations of the United States. Even so, this situation is subject to a system of checks and balances, such as the authorization that Congress must give when declaring war on another nation.
