Answer: 140%

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1: FIND THE CHANGE IN # OF PEOPLE:

initial # of people: 144

final # of people: 346

change in # of people = (final - initial)

change in # of people = (346 - 144)

change in # of people = 202

STEP 2: FIND THE % CHANGE

202/144 = x/100

(100)(202/144) = x

100(1.4) = x

140% = x

At times, latitudes with values higher than ________ degrees can have ~ 24 hours of continuous sunshine.

ryzh [129]

At times, latitudes with values higher than<u> 66.5</u> degrees can have ~ 24 hours of continuous sunshine.

Locations above the Arctic Circle (north of latitude 66.5 degrees, 90 degrees minus the tilt of the Earth's axis) are exposed to 24-hour sunlight. Below the Arctic Circle (latitude 66.5 degrees south), there is 24-hour darkness.

When at the equator, the sun is directly above – at the poles, the sun is on the horizon. However, regardless of the current location (from the pole to the equator), all parallels are bisected, so we have 12 hours a day and 12 hours a night in all locations.
