Hi there!
You will have already be known that the <em>sun's rays are closest to the equatorial regions</em> <em>than</em> the <em>polar regions</em>. So the stronger heat rays reach the equator first, heating it's water faster. Within the span of time when the rays reach the polar areas (poles), the sun rays become slanted, leading it into the ocean waters.
Also, the sharpness or intensity of the rays gets weakened, thereby heating the water of polar regions less.
Using this fact, we can say that the rays falling near the equator heats the water more than the rays heating the water at poles.
Hence, we can say that <u>D) </u><u>T</u><u>he sun heats earth and it ocean unevenly</u> will be your answer.
Thank you !
Answer:
x = 7, y = 2
Explanation:
Two triangles are said to be congruent if all three sides and three angles of one triangle is equal to three sides and three angles of the other triangle.
From the question:
BD ≅ BD (reflexive property of equality)
Since BD is the angle bisector of ∠ABC, hence ∠ABD = ∠CBD
∠ABD = 2x + y, ∠CBD = 14 + y. Therefore:
2x + y = 14 + y
2x = 14 + y - y
2x = 14
x = 14 / 2
x = 7
Also, ∠BAD = ∠BCD = 90° (right angled triangle)
Since ∠BAD = ∠BCD, BD ≅ BD and ∠ABD = ∠CBD, therefore ΔABD is congruent to ΔCBD by angle-angle-side congruence theorem.
The angle-angle-side congruence theorem states that if two angles and one side of one triangle is equal to two angles and one side of another triangle the both triangles are congruent.
ΔABD is congruent to ΔCBD, therefore AD = CD
5x - y = x + 13y
13y + y = 5x - x
14y = 4x
14y = 4(7)
y = 4(7) / 14
y = 2

Answer:
Two measures that have been introduced by the US and local governments to reduce the consumption of gas are the introduction of light-rail and the use of carpool lanes.
Explanation:
The introduction of light-rail will reduce the consumption of gas from personal vehicles and also reduce personal vehicle carbon emissions. One example is the Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) and Los Angeles has a system that combines light rail and heavy rail called Metro Rail. The use of carpool lanes will reduce the use of gas and help to reduce traffic congestion because there will be less cars on the road in high traffic areas where there is a large percentage of the population who commutes to and from work on freeways. Carpool lanes or High Capacity Vehicle (HCV) lanes are found in metropolitan areas like Washington DC.

Explanation:
To rank these foods in the amount of sugars, I will first explain the index I will use, which is called the glycemic index. This index is based on the classification of carbohydrate-rich foods according to how they affect blood glucose levels, popularly known as blood sugar.
The higher the glycemic index, the easier the food is digested and absorbed in the gut, increasing the glycemia. Thus, the foods were divided into 3 categories:
Low IG: 55 or less
Average IG: 56 - 69
High IG: 70 or more
Based on this, the lowest to highest glycemic level food ranks as follows: beans, liver, carrots, white rice and baked potatoes.
