First, preexisting rocks must weather/erode, forming the sediment that will eventually form the sedimentary rock. Then, that sediment must settle someplace, and over a long period of time, pressure begins to build. This causes the sediments to become compacted. After a long period of time (and a lot of pressure), the sediments cement together and form a sedimentary rock. In a nutshell, sedimentary rocks form through compaction, cementation, and eventually... lithification.

What was the average of diameters (cm) for the Willapa Bay urchins sampled before the hunt? (Type just the number rounded to the
Otrada [13]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The question is incomplete as the diameters of the Willapa Bay urchins were not given.

However, I'll give a general way to solve this problem.

Average is calculated using:

Average = \frac{\sum x}{n}

i.e. Sum of all diameters divided by the number of bay urchins.

The diameter of urchins is usually between 6cm to 12cm; So, I will assume the following diameters for 10 urchins.

10cm, 8cm, 10cm, 7cm, 9cm, 10cm, 6cm, 10cm,8cm, 8cm

Using the above data, the average is:

Average= \frac{10+8+10+7+9+10+6+10+8+8}{10}

Average= \frac{86}{10}

Average= 8.6
