Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Pollution can be defined as the introduction of harmful substances (man-made or natural) into the environment.
There are four major types of pollution:
1. Land pollution
2. Water pollution
3. Air pollution
4. Noise pollution
Land pollution refers to the gradual disintegration of the earth surface.
Causes of land pollution
1. Deforestation: The continuous cutting down of trees in the forest.
2. Erosion: The gradual disintegration of soil caused by the action of water.
3. Harmful agricultural practices such as bush burning, introducing toxic substances such as pesticides into the soil
4. Increased industrial waste due to increase in the number of industries
5. Mining of natural resources from the earth surface
6. Construction of bridges, railways and roads
Answer:
The proportion that can be used to find x is;
(200-x)/x = 7/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Now, we want to find the proportion which can be used to find x.
From the question, we are told that the father skater traveled 7 ft for every 6 ft of the slower skater;
this means that the ratio of their speed is 7:6
Now, when they passed each other , the slower skater has traveled x ft, what this means is that the faster skater will have traveled a distance of (200-x) ft at that moment they passed each other.
Mathematically, since their time is equal i.e the time they used to pass each other, then, the ratio of their distances is same as the ratio of their speeds;
Hence;
(200-x)/x = 7/6 or x/(200-x) = 6/7
Answer:
81°
Step-by-step explanation:
By the outside angle theroem, we know that 2 * angle APC is differece of arcs DC and AB.
Angle APC = 27° so the difference is 54°
Arc DC = 27°, so Arc AB = 27° + 54° or 81°.
Answer:
$241,400
Step-by-step explanation:
House costs: $200,000
Percentage increase: 20.7%
This means that the cost of the house increased by that percentage from 2012 to 2013. Therefore the following,
200,000 x 20.7/100 = 41,400
So the value of the house increased by $41,400 in this year.
Now we add to evaluate the total price of the house in 2013.
200,000 + 41,400 = 241,400
House price: $241,400
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
DEF=180
DE=120
180-120=60
