Answer:

A Continental drift theory

Step-by-step explanation:

The continental drift theory was popularized by Alfred Wegener at the beginning of the past century (early 1900s). He stated that continents are land masses that float on magma, and they are continuously moving and drifting over the magma oceans that lie underneath. Wegener believed that all continents were once part of one single large continent called Pangea and that they started drifting away millions of years ago until they reached their current position. He also stated that the continents are still moving, but the movement is very slow and we can only notice it during earthquakes and tremors.

This theory has been updated and replaced by the study of plate tectonics.

At a particular restaurant each mozzarella stick has 90 cal in each pizza roll has 80 cal. A combination meal with the mozzarell
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

The meal consist 11 mozzarella sticks and 6 pizza rolls.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Calories in mozzarella stick = 90

Calories in pizza roll = 80

Let x be the number of a mozzarella stick and y be the number of pizza rolls.

Total calories in meal = 1470

Thus, we can write the equation:

90x + 80y = 1470

There are five more mozzarella sticks than pizza roll.

Thus, we can write the equation:

x = y + 5\\x-y = 5

Solving the two equations, we get,

90x+80y+80x-80y = 1470 + 400\\170x = 1870\\x = 11\\y = 11-5 = 6

Thus, the meal consist 11 mozzarella sticks and 6 pizza rolls.

Can i have the answer to this <br> pic is below
eduard

Answer:

question 1: m = 3/2

question 2: m = 1/95

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form of equation is of form

y = mx+c

where m is the slope of line and c is the y intercept of the line.

Y intercept is point on y axis where the line intersects the y axis.

____________________________________

given

y = 3/2 x

comparing it with y = mx+c

we have m = 3/2 .

since y = 3/2 x does not have constant term so it can be taken as 0. hence c is 0

_________________________________________

slope for any two point (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) on coordinate plane is given by

slope = (x2-x1)/y2-y1)

From the given table lets take two point as (2,190) and(4,380)

Thus, slope m is given by

m = (4-2)/(380-190) = 2/190 = 1/95

m = 1/95

Though, slope can be taken by dividing y by x (y/x). It is good practice to use two point form formula as given above . Provided two points are given

Please mark it the brainliest.

How do you solve k/2+9=30
Mrrafil [7]
If you would like to solve the equation k / 2 + 9 = 30, you can calculate this using the following steps:

k / 2 + 9 = 30
k / 2 = 30 - 9 
k / 2 = 21     /*2
k = 21 * 2
k = 42

The result is 42.
