Answer:
When a habitat is destroyed, the carrying capacity for indigenous plants, animals, and other organisms is reduced so that populations decline, sometimes up to the level of extinction. Habitat loss is perhaps the greatest threat to organisms and biodiversity.
Step-by-step explanation:
The 3 in the hundreds place (value of 300) has a value that is 10x the 3 in the tens (value of 30).
As y varies directly with x, there is a proportionality constant. As x increases by that certain constant, y also increases. We equate:
y = kx
where k = proportionality constant.
Given the condition, y = 5 when x = 4, then we solve for k:
5 = k(4)
k = 5/4 or 1.25
When y = 8, then
8 = (5/4)(x)
x = 8/(5/4) = (8)(4/5) = 32/5 or 6.4 (ANSWER)
Answer:
The angle Matt drew = 180°
Step-by-step explanation:
The total angle formed by the 8 angles Matt drew in the circle equals 360° because one revolution of a circle is the same as the angle about a point which equals 360°.
Let the equal angles drawn = x
x + x + x + x + x + x + x + x = 360°
8 × x = 360°
8x = 360
x = 45°
∴ each angle drawn = 45°
Next, we are told that Matt drew another angle that has the same measurement as four (4) of the sections (angles) in the circle.
Finding the measure of this angle:
1 section in the circle = 45 (<em>shown above</em>)
∴ 4 sections = 45 × 4 = 180°
∴ The angle Matt drew = 180°
Answer:
The Latin phrase is "reduction ad absurd um", meaning reduction to absurdity. You assume the opposite and show that logically it leads to a contradiction and therefore cannot be true.
Hope this helps.
