A drainage basin bordering the sea has an area of 7500 km2 . The average precipitation for this drainage basin is 900 mm year-1

. The average surface water flow at the outlet of the drainage basin equals 22.5 × 108 m3 year-1 . The average groundwater flow to the sea is 100 mm year-1 . The averages are determined for 30 hydrological years.
a. Draw up the water balance.


b. Determine the average actual evaporation in mm year-1 and m3 year-1

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

The basic water balance dictates that "Amount of water flowing into the basin should be equal to the amount of water flowing out of it".

Mathematically

Water_{in}=Water_{out}\\\\P=E+Q+I

where

P = precipitation

I = Infiltration losses in the basin

E = Evapotranspiration

Q = is outflow from the basin

Applying the given values we get

900=E+\frac{22.5\times 10^{8}}{7500\times 10^{6}}\times 1000+100\\\\900=E+300+100

Part b)

From the above equation we get

E=900-400=500mm/year

The evaporation in cubic meters per year is

E'=0.5\times 7500\times 10^{6}=3750\times 10^{6}m^3/year

If m∠A =91° and m∠B = 40°, find m∠1.
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

m∠1 is calculated as 49°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the angles are the interior angles of a triangle.

                      m∠A =91°

                      m∠B = 40°

                      m∠1  = ?

We know that the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°. So,

                          m∠A + m∠B + m∠1 = 180°

                      or, m∠1 = 180°- m∠A - m∠B

                      or, m∠1 = 180°- 91° - 40°

                      or, m∠1 = 49°

Hence, m∠1 = 49°.

2x+3x^2(4x-5)<br> please helpppp asap
Aliun [14]

Here's my step-by-step explanation:

We're just gonna factor.

If your teacher has spoken of FOIL, then he/she has probably said that it means First Outer Inner Last and that it helps with distributing problems like these.

Right, so let's get to it.

2x+3x^2 (4x-5)\\2x(4x-5)+3x^2(4x-5)\\2x(4x) + 2x(-5) + 3x^2(4x) + 3x^2(-5)

Can you see the FOIL method being spread out here? Let's keep going.

2x(4x) + 2x(-5) + 3x^2(4x) + 3x^2(-5)\\8x^2 + (-10x) + 12x^3 + (-15x^2)\\12x^3 + 8x^2 - 15x^2 -10x\\12x^3 -7x^2 -10x

Hope this helps, and let me know if I made a mistake! ^_^
