Answer:

B. both earthquakes and volcanoes are common.

Explanation:

Transform Plate Boundaries are locations where two tectonic plates slide against one another. There are three types of plate boundaries: convergent, divergent, and transform.

When the plates rub against each other, huge stresses can cause portions of the rock to break, resulting in earthquakes. Places where these breaks occur are called faults.

A well-known example of a transform fault is the San Andreas Fault in California and the Alpine Fault of New Zealand.

Volcanism occurs at convergent boundaries (subduction zones) and at divergent boundaries (mid-ocean ridges, continental rifts), but not commonly at transform boundaries.

Plate boundaries are also associated with the creation of other topographic features such as mountains, volcanoes, mid-ocean ridges, and oceanic trenches. However, except there is a deep break into the earth's crust, the volcanoes are not noticeable.

-4(-v + 4) + 8v = -2(-5y + 2)
givi [52]

Answer:

y= - -6v + 6/5 (the fraction is negative and the 6 is too)

Explanation:

switch sides

-2(-5y+2)=-4(-v+4)+8v

divide both sides by -2

-2(-5y+2)= -  4(-v+4)/-2 (fraction is negative not the four)+8v/-2

Simplify

-5y+2=-2(3v-4)

Subtract 2 from both sides

-5y+2-2=-2(3v-4)-2

Simplify

-5y=-6v+6

Divide both sides by -5

-5y/-5= -6v/-5+ 6/-5

Simplify andddd

y= - -6v+6/5
