Vikentia [17]

Answer:

market...planned

Explanation:

The mixed economy types are economy types that have strong elements from both the market economies, and the planned economies. Usually, this type of economy has developed from planned economy type, but because of adaptations in order for the economy to progress and develop, lot of the elements of the market economy has been implemented as well. This results in an economy where the government is still holding onto the most important natural resources in order to provide economic security, while the private sector is also thriving and develops very well without being limited by the government, but instead having it as an economic partner. A perfect example of this is China.

What type of map is best suited for maritime navigation? A. Topographic B. Geologic C. Mercator projection D. Conic projection
DerKrebs [107]


The best answer is C.

Mercator projection is a type of map projection invented and introduced by Gerardus Mercator in the year 1569. The meridians are equally spaced, parallel vertical lines and the parallels of latitude are parallel horizontal lines spaced farther apart as their distance from the equator increases.

This projection is widely used for navigation charts because any straight line on a Mercator- projection map is a line of constant true bearing that enables a navigator to plot a straight-line course.

It is often described as a cylindrical projection  but it must be derived mathematically.
