An Ecosystem is a community of living organisms in conjunction with the nonliving components of their environment, interacting as a system. These biotic and abiotic components are linked together through nutrient cycles and energy flows. Energy enters the system through photosynthesis and is incorporated into plant tissue. By feeding on plants and on one another, animals play an important role in the movement of matter and energy through the system. They also influence the quantity of plant and microbial biomass present. By breaking down dead organic matter, decomposers release carbon back to the atmosphere and facilitate nutrient cycling by converting nutrients stored in dead biomass back to a form that can be readily used by plants and other microbes.

Answer:
3.61 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Length of track = 5/6 of a mile
Number times Mary was able to run around the track = 4 1/3 times
Total miles ran by Mary :
(Equivalent mile of the track * number of times Mary ran around the track)
5/6 of a mile * 4 1/3 times
5/6 * 13/3
= 65 / 18
= 3.611111 miles
Hence, total Number of miles ran by Mary is 3.61 miles
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of interior angle of any polygon = 180* (n- 2 )
Here, n= number of sides
Sum of interior angles of regular octagon = 180 * ( 8-2) = 180 * 6 = 1080°
In regular octagon, all the angles are congruent,
So, measure of an interior angle of regular octagon = 1080/8 = 135°
Sum of interior angles of regular hexagon = 180 * ( 6-2) = 180*4 = 720°
In regular hexagon, all the angles are congruent,
So, measure of an interior angle of regular hexagon = 720/6 = 120°
The measure of an interior angle of a regular octagon is greater than the measure of an interior angle of a regular hexagon by 15°
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
y=8x+4
y=mx+b where m=slope and b=y-intercept
b=4
Test the choices !
Pick an even number, and see what each choice does to it.
Let's start with, say, 6 .
We'll try each choice, and see which one produces an odd number:
a). 6 to the 2nd power. . . . . . 6 x 6 = 36. That's not an odd number.
b). 6 + 3 = 9 This could be it. 9 is odd. We'll save this one.
c). 3·6 = 18. That's not an odd number.
d). 6/3 = 2. That's not an odd number.
The only one that gave us an odd number is (b).
