3 0

Meander is the term used to describe the sinuous flow of water in rivers. Meanders are usually formed in the middle or the lower course of the river. In the lower course, deposition can cause the neck of the meander to become cut off from the main channel leaving a structure that contains water. This feature is called an OXBOW LAKE.

If I subtract 20 from my number, then square the result, I get the same answer as if I square my number, then subtract 20 from t

Natasha_Volkova [10]

The value of the unknown number is 10.5.

Let the unknown number = x

When 20 is subtracted from the number and the result is squared which is equal to the square of the unknown number minus 20:

(x - 20)² = x² - 20

<em>expand the equation;</em>

x² - 40x + 400 = x² - 20

<em>collect similar terms together;</em>

x² - x² - 40x = -20 - 400

-40x = -420

$x = \frac{420}{40}\\\\ x = 10.5$

Thus, the value of the unknown number is 10.5.

CAPACITY..

Limiting factors determine carrying capacity. The availability of abiotic factors (such as water, oxygen, and space) and biotic factors (such as food) dictates how many organisms can live in an ecosystem. Carrying capacity is also impacted by the availability of decomposers.

BIODIVERSITY...

While food and water supply, habitat space, and competition with other species are some of the limiting factors affecting the carrying capacity of a given environment, in human populations, other variables such as sanitation, diseases, and medical care are also at play.
