Answer:

2.73%

Explanation:

First at all, we need to calculate the raise of the salary due only to inflation:

42.500 x ( 1 + 2.8%) = 43.998,4 USD.

The real increase is the difference between the previous calculation and the 45.200 dollars. Then, we need to know which percentage is necessary to increase the salary up to 42.500.

43.998,4 * ( 1 + x%) = 45.200

43.998,4 + 43.998,4 * x% = 45.200

43.998,4 * x% = 1201.6

x% = 1201.6 / 43.998,4

<h2>x% = 2.73</h2>

Which was one immediate effect of the discovery of oil in persia
Kaylis [27]

The correct answer is A. Russia and Britain sent troops to protect their interest there

Explanation:

In the beginning of the twentieth century around 1908 it was found there was a large oil field in Persia which is now known as modern Iran. Knowing the economic advantage this field represented companies from Great Britain became immediately interested in this new discovery, because of this, companies of both countries negotiated a concession with the king of Persia to extract the oil. This was the case of the British company Anglo-Persian Oil Company which take advantage of the situation and was the first company in extracting oil from the zone.

In the case of Russia, during this historical period, the Russian Empire was the one that ruled Persia and therefore was equally interested in extracting the oil. This situation began a struggle between Russian and Britan that sent their troops to try to protect the territory where the oil was and divided the Persian Empire into different zones. Thus, one of the immediate effects of the discovery of oil in Persia (Iran) was that "Russia and Britain sent troops to protect their interests there" considering Britan had a concession with the king of Persia and Russia had power over the zone.

Answer:

My answers is Mediterranean Sea.

Explanation:

If I need to choose only one answer it would be Mediterranean sea, as it was to the north to Egypt, which meant that it was impossible to attack Egypt from North without navy.

Red Sea can be also the correct answer as it protects Egypt from the east, although Sinai Peninsula connects Egypt with Asia.

Tigris and Euphrates are in Mesopotamia, not Egypt.

Nile is not correct as the river flows across Egypt and couldn't prevent invasion.
