Deffense [45]3 years ago

A nonrenewable resource is a resource that can't be replenished quickly or effectively.
Water is a renewable resource because there is a lot of it, and it is always being replenished through the water cycle.
Sunlight is a inexorable resource, which is just a fancy way of saying it will never run out.
Trees can be planted, but they take a while to grow, but can, technically, be counted as a renewable resource.
Therefore, the only answer that doesn't grow back after you take it is metals.
Your answer is C. Metals.

Why has indonesia been giving away free land
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

On May 14 Indonesia’s constitutional court ruled to modify the language of a 1999 law, effectively placing millions of hectares of previously government-controlled forest land back into the hands of Indigenous Peoples.

The ruling clarified Indonesia’s classification of forest land, separating state forests from public forests and dividing public forests into either customary or individual forests. Previously, all customary forests had been under state control; now, the rights for customary forests have been handed back to the Indigenous inhabitants.

-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

How hove volcanoes played a role in the formation of land above or below the water?
cluponka [151]
Volcanoes play an important role in creating land since they are the sources of magma, which once above ground normally cools to create new land. In the ocean, this land normally forms at divergent and convergent boundaries or hot spots. At divergent boundaries (where two plates move apart), magma constantly erupts along a trench deep below the ocean's surface. This magma rarely piles upward and instead is pushed to both sides of the trench. This is how new seafloor forms. Convergent boundaries can create island arcs like Indonesia as magma erupts bit by bit. Hot spots occur in the middle of plates. They are instances where the mantle pierces through the crust and begins to erupt directly onto to seafloor. Over time, these eruptions will pile up and create underwater volcanoes until they potentially make it above sea level, thereby forming an island. This is how Hawaii was and continues to be formed.
