Answer:
Choice B: Carbon would not be recycled and added to soil, interrupting the cycle.
Step-by-step explanation:
Without the help of decomposers, the ones who break the dead organisms down, the carbon would be locked inside the dead organism. Then carbon wouldn't be able to get recycled through the air. The only way it could be released would be through combustion.
Answer: 278.30 pounds (if the gasoline does not contain ethanol)
317.12 pounds (if the gasoline does contain ethanol)
Step-by-step explanation:
If the truck averages 12 miles per gallon, then in 170 miles it consumes:
170mi/12mi = 14.17 gallons.
We know that for one gallon consumed, the carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere is 19.64 pounds. (assuming it does not contain ethanol)
Then for 14.17 gallons consumed, we have a emission of:
14.17*19.64 pounds = 278.30 pounds
I the gasoline contains ethanlol, for a gallon the emiision is around 22.38 pounds.
In this case the total emission is:
14.17*22.38 pounds = 317.12 pounds
Answer:
y =20
Step-by-step explanation:
you have to get the y by itself so what you do on one side you do to the other. subtract 12 on both sides and you get y=20
