Answer:

The correct answer is option C. rocks that form from materials that existed in older rocks.

Explanation:

Sedimentary rocks are small pieces of<u> older rocks </u>(such as igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary)<u> in conjunction with organic remains. </u>

Once they erode, these rocks move across rivers and oceans. While they do, they accumulate sediments that are compressed and heated.

<u>The high temperatures and pressures</u> finally lithify the loose sediment in a sedimentary rock.

slava [35]
I'm not exactly sure what you are trying to ask..

However, here is my take on your problem.

36 = Total before the day
8 = Total at the end of the day

36 - 8 = 28 <em>This is how many packages were left.

</em>36 = 28 + 8 <u /><em>This is a possible equation, it contains two terms (28, 8).

 </em>36-8=28 <em>This is another possible equation that is equvilent to the previous    suggested one.</em><em>

</em>Hope this helps!<em>

The MMS was in part responsible for this event, or at the very least for not handling correctly.
