The economic activities that were the most influential in the deforestation of the northeastern part of the country on the Atlantic coast were the lumber industry and the agriculture.
The lumber industry has not been properly controlled, and with such a high quantity of high quality lumber that is highly demanded and expensive on the global markets, it was taking down as much trees as possible in order to make a big profit.
Because of the needs for land for the agriculture, lot of forested area had been cleared and destroyed so that the agriculture can develop and grow in this region.
Unfortunately, the nature hasn't been taken into consideration while doing this activities, so big portions of it had been destroyed, and even worse, the process is continuing.
I believe that the perpendicular equation would be the opposite sign and the reciprocal of the original slope. Then you just plug in the x and y coordinate to y=mx+b and solve for b.
y=4x+b
3=4(-4)+b
3=-16+b
b=19
y=4x+19
The correct answer is - The Roman civilization.
The Romans invaded Britain, even though it took them some time, gradually they managed to get under their control most of what is now England and Wales. With their arrival, the Romans brought lots of things from their society, including alphabet, thus reading and writing, they started to create cities with solid defense systems, and gradually were building roads in order to connect the cities they've built in order to enable better and quicker communication between them. Also, they introduced the Christianity in Britain. It is debatable about the exact time, there are some sources that claim that it was introduced as early as the 1st century AD, but officially it is considered that there was enough mass of people and preachers in period of the 3rd and 4th centuries so that it can be considered as a living, practiced, and prospering religion.
According to the United Nations World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO), tourism entails the movement of people to countries or places outside their usual environment for personal or business/professional purposes. These people are called visitors. Generally speaking, a visitor is classified as a (same-)day visitor if their trip does not include an overnight stay and a tourist if it does include an overnight stay. The purpose of their trip can be for business, leisure or personal reasons, other than to be employed by a resident entity in the country or place visited.
Types of tourism
There are three basic forms of tourism: domestic tourism, inbound tourism, and outbound tourism.
Domestic tourism refers to activities of a visitor within their country of residence and outside of their home (e.g. a Brit visiting other parts of Britain).
Inbound tourism refers to the activities of a visitor from outside of country of residence (e.g. a Spaniard visiting Britain).
Outbound tourism refers to the activities of a resident visitor outside of their country of residence (e.g. a Brit visiting an overseas country).
The tourism industry in Britain is primarily a private sector industry, consisting of around 200,000 businesses, some very large including international hotel groups and airlines, as well as small and medium sized businesses, industry groups and bodies.
Domestic tourism is the core of businesses revenue (generally at least 80%, particularly outside of London), with demand peaking during the school holidays, particular Easter and Summer. Dealing with the demands of international visitors requires specialist knowledge, cultural understanding and investment.
Most UK statistics separate spending and volume of day visitors from overnight tourists. VisitBritain’s statistics and research reports focus on overseas visitors who come to Britain.
For domestic statistics (ie. data on people from within Britain who visit another location in Britain) get in touch with the tourism organisations for England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and London.
What are tourism products?
'Tourism product' covers a number of different categories including:
Accommodation, i.e. hotels, bed & breakfasts, guest houses, self-catering/serviced apartments, camping, caravanning and home stay
Hospitality, i.e. food and beverage serving services, e.g. pubs, restaurants, cafes, private dining for groups/conferences
Transport services, e.g. rail, road, water, air networks and rental
Guided tours and tourist guides
Travel agencies and other reservation services, including tour operators and destination management companies (see travel trade section)
Cultural services, e.g. museums, attractions
Sports and recreational activities
Retail
Agriculture
The word agriculture is derived from a Latin word- ager or agri meaning soil, and ‘culture’ meaning cultivation of the soil. In modern terms, agriculture comprises “the art and science of cultivating the soil, growing crops and rearing livestock.”
You can consider farming to be rather a complete system which includes inputs, processing, and outputs. The inputs here are seeds, fertilizers, machinery, which then, undergoes operations like ploughing, sowing, irrigation, weeding, and harvesting. And thus, we get the final outputs like crops, dairy and poultry products.
