Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Well.....

Explanation:

  There is a possible chance that humans would survive with out plans but they could also not survive without plans. I chose to be on the side where humans wouldn't survive without plans. The reason that they would not be able to survive would be because if they had no plans and most people rely on the plans for surviving that why I think they wouldn't survive.

     But on the other hand, if they knew surviving skills or at least had a back up plan if they lost their plans, they would definitely survive. I hope this is the answer your looking for, This knowledge came from my head.

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

2.5 km  = 250000 cm

500 ft = 15240 cm

Explanation:

part a

given data

length = 2.5 km

to find out

Convert into cm

solution

we know that 1 m = 100 cm    ...............1

and also we know 1 km = 1000 m     .................2

sop as that we can say from equation 1 and 2

1 km = 100000 cm

so for 2.5 km = 2.5 × 100000 cm

2.5 km  = 250000 cm

and

part b

given data

length = 500 ft

to find out

Convert ft into cm

solution

we know here that

1 ft = 12 inches     ..................1

and also we know 1 inch = 2.54 cm    ...................2

so we can say

500 ft = 12 × 500 inches

500 ft = 6000 inches

and 500 ft = 6000 × 2.54 cm

500 ft = 15240 cm
