<u>Answer:</u>
The new dictionary which is the dictionary of Macmillan has more than one meaning of certain words. Thus it has an ambiguous meaning which is more than one meaning of the word yes also.
It is also known as the Open dictionary and people might have different views and opinions of the various meanings of a particular word. The publisher of this dictionary is based in London.
They young populations are challenging and expensive for a country to care for because they require more healthcare, immunization, and checks-up , Especially for children. Not only that, they also still haven't be able to contribute to the country's economic growth
Answer:
Hi,
Geologists obtain indirect evidence about the earth’s interior by studying seismic waves produced.
Explanation:
Geologists are able to study the layers of the interior of the earth by observing the seismic waves patterns. The recorded data for the waves can show how the waves traveled through the earth and the path followed which will reveal the structure of the interior of the earth. The speed and magnitude of the wave can further reveal the characteristics of the earth’s interior.
Best wishes!
Oil still plays an important role in the global economy despite the continued efforts to reduce its use and to find alternative green energy sources. In the early days, finding oil during a drill was considered somewhat of a nuisance as the intended treasures were normally water or salt. It wasn't until 1847 that the first commercial oil well was drilled in the Absheron Peninsula, Azerbaijan.1 The U.S. petroleum industry was born 12 years later, in 1859, with intentional drilling near Titusville, Pennsylvania. (Drilling in the United States began in the early 1800s, but they were drilling for brine so any oil discovery was accidental.)2
Answer:
x = 7, y = 2
Explanation:
Two triangles are said to be congruent if all three sides and three angles of one triangle is equal to three sides and three angles of the other triangle.
From the question:
BD ≅ BD (reflexive property of equality)
Since BD is the angle bisector of ∠ABC, hence ∠ABD = ∠CBD
∠ABD = 2x + y, ∠CBD = 14 + y. Therefore:
2x + y = 14 + y
2x = 14 + y - y
2x = 14
x = 14 / 2
x = 7
Also, ∠BAD = ∠BCD = 90° (right angled triangle)
Since ∠BAD = ∠BCD, BD ≅ BD and ∠ABD = ∠CBD, therefore ΔABD is congruent to ΔCBD by angle-angle-side congruence theorem.
The angle-angle-side congruence theorem states that if two angles and one side of one triangle is equal to two angles and one side of another triangle the both triangles are congruent.
ΔABD is congruent to ΔCBD, therefore AD = CD
5x - y = x + 13y
13y + y = 5x - x
14y = 4x
14y = 4(7)
y = 4(7) / 14
y = 2
