Geography
1 answer:
Dmitriy789 [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

The International Date Line (boundary) is from when each calendar day starts; west of the date line is 1 calendar day ahead  (24 hour difference) of areas to the east.

The International Date Line runs from the North Pole to the South Pole along the Pacific Ocean; curves around the islands of Kiribati (to make the islands the same day), extends outward between Asia and North America, and causes Cape Dezhenev, Russia to be 1 day ahead of Cape Prince of Wales, Alaska and they are only 50 miles apart.

International Date line follows a 180 degree meridian (halfway around the globe from the prime meridian) and meausres 0-degrees longitude

How can the informal sector be improved so as to contribute meaningfully to the economy
Zolol [24]
The informal sector lacks land, capital, and technology, and can be less productive than formal enterprises, however, it can improve individual earnings and add money into the economy. It is the access to the market and power to purchase that can assist the productivity of the informal worker. If products can be sold on a cheaper mass scale to informal workers to use as a resource, this could help improve this sector to be more meaningful.
