Answer: The oldest one is Vredfort Crater.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data is:

Chicxulub was formed 6.5x10^7 years ago.

Vredfort was formed 2x10^9 years ago.

Sudbury basin was formed 1.8x10^9 years ago.

Acraman crater was formed 5.8x10^8 years ago.

We want to find the oldest, so we need to find the larger number of the 4 we have.

For this, we need to see at the exponents, the larger the exponent the larger the number.

We have two with a 9 in the exponent:

Vredfort and Sudbury.

Now we look at the number, Vredfort has 2x10^9 and Sudbury has 1.8x10^9.

Both have the same exponent, but the scalar of Vredfort is larger (2 is greater than 1.8) so we have that Vredfort is older.

What is the slope of the graph of 14x + 7y = –9?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]
We will put ur equation in y = mx + b form, and the slope will be in the m position.

14x + 7y = -9
7y = -14x - 9
y = (-14/7)x - 9/7
y = -2x - 9/7

y = mx + b
y = -2x + (-9/7)....as u can see, the -2 is in the m position and is therefore the slope.

What is the slope of 1/7 ?​
krok68 [10]
An equation typically has a slope. Since there is no equation given, I am assuming that 1/7 is the slope:)

1/7 simplified into decimal form is is 0.1428!

Answer: 4 parfaits.

Step-by-step explanation: 1/2 divided by 1/8. when you divide you flip the second fraction and multiply it so now it's 1/2 x 8/1 which is 8/2 and then is turned into 4 so 4 parfaits

Hope this helps im really good at fractions if you need anything else lol :')
