The power plants can purchase additional allowances from companies that are more efficient or don’t need all of their allowances. They can also pay to upgrade their systems to pollute less.

It will result in increased air pollution, leading to an increase in the layer of oson (<em>around the Earth there is a fragile layer of a gas called ozone, which protects animals, plants and humans from ultraviolet rays emitted by the sun</em>), climate change and a decrease in the quality of life of the local population with loss of air quality. In short, the environment will be gradually attained which will affect even future generations.

The decisions on whether a plant complies with the regulations should be based on how much pollution it could potentially emit, rather than the current standard of how much it pollutes.

Which type of roadway did North Carolina construct nearly five hundred miles of between the 1830s and 1860s?
g100num [7]

The correct answer is; Plank.

Further Explanation:

North Carolina started building plank roads in the late 1840's. These roads were easier to maintain and easier to drive on. Before the plank roads were built, the roads had long muddy roads and large holes and ruts that drivers had to navigate through.

The crews could only lay an estimated 40 miles of plank roads per year and this did cause issues. North Carolina had the largest plank road with a total of 500 miles built. The rods failed after a few years because it took so long to build.

Citizens were then using the railroad system since it was faster than traveling by horse and buggy. The people also did not like having to stop at the toll booth that had been set up on the road. The money collected at the toll booth was used to pay for maintenance of the plank road.

Arlo is offered a job in Des Moines, where the CPI is 60, and a job in New York, where the CPI is 125. Arlo's job offer in Des M
lana [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is  $100,000.

Explanation:

CPI or Consumer Price Index uses a basket of goods approach that aims to compare a consistent base of products from year to year focusing on products that are bought and used by consumers daily.

In the example, we can solve the question by using the simple "rule of 3" considering that the purchasing power is directly proportional to the income received and the CPI of the place where we are located. We will have:

(48 000)/60=  x/125

125(48000) = 60(x)

x = 100000

So, a job in New York should offer $100,000 for the two salaries to represent the same buying power.
