Hypothesis: An idea or explanation that you then test through study and experimentation; written as an "if...then" statement.
Distance of two points can be calculaetd using formula:

Here x1 and y1 are coordinates of point A and x2 and y2 are coordinates of point B.
Now we insert numbers into formula:
The answer is France - it is both south of Belgium and north of Spain.
Both lakes are located in turkey is one of the similarities.
Answer:
D. Heavy rainfall saturated the soil and destabilized the over-steepened slope.
Explanation:
The mud slide must have occurred in La Conchita California due to heavy rainfall which saturated the soil and destabilized the over-steepened slope.
Mud slide or mud flow is a form of mass wasting in which slope moves downward due to instability of the materials. They usually influenced by the effect of gravity on steep slopes.
- Prior to the mass moving event on the in the county, there was an unprecedented 14-15days streak of rainfall.
- The rain saturated and lubricated the soil bringing a reduction in their cohesion and ultimate movement.
- This led to the sliding down of the masses on the slope.
