Earthquakes occur along the edge of the oceanic and continental plates.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Our answer choices are:
- A temperature increase of 1 degree Fahrenheit is equivalent to a temperature increase of 5/9 degrees Celsius.
- A temperature increase of 1 degree Celsius is equivalent to a temperature increase of 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit.
- A temperature increase of 59 degree Fahrenheit is equivalent to a temperature increase of 1 degree Celsius.
Let's try the first one. We can just choose any temperature and then use the number 1 larger than it; let's do F = 10:
C = (5/9) * (10 - 32) = (5/9) * (-22) ≈ -12.2
When F = 10 + 1 = 11:
C = (5/9) * (11 - 32) = (5/9) * (-21) ≈ -11.7
We see that indeed, -11.7 - (-12.2) ≈ 0.56 ≈ 5/9, so the first is correct.
For the second, let's see what happens when C = 10 and when C = 11:
10 = (5/9) * (F - 32)
F = 50
11 = (5/9) * (F - 32)
F = 51.8
Again we see that indeed 51.8 - 50 = 1.8
So, the second choice is also correct.
Thus, the answer is D.
