Answer:

$13764 ; $247752 ; $173426 ; $259740

Explanation:

1 white pine = 62 board feets

Density of white pine = 120 trees per acre

Wholesale price per board foot = $1.85

The value per acre of white pines

(Number of board foots per white pine) * (Number of white pines per acre) * (wholesale price per board foot)

(62 * 120 * $1.85) = $13,764

B.) Amount Realized on harvesting 18 acres

Value per acre * 18

$13764 * 18

= $247752

C.)

Amount charged by timber company = 30% of wholesale price

Total wholesale amount realized on 18 acre = $247752

Amount left after paying timber company :

$247752 - (0.3 * $247752)

= $173426.4

= $173426 (nearest dollar)

d.

Amount made now : = $247752

After 10 years :

The value per acre of white pines

(Number of board foots per white pine) * (Number of white pines per acre) * (wholesale price per board foot)

(127 * 120 * $1.85 * 18) = $507492

$507492 - $247752 = $259740

How does the environment affect genetic factors and gene expression?
Leno4ka [110]

The gene expression of the organism may be affected by the environment. This includes the outside ecosphere where the entire creature and organism are situated or progresses, and also as the organism's interior ecosphere, these consist of the aspects of metabolism and hormones. Even though the structure of genes is unaffected by the environment, the gene expression (how the genes work) will be affected. Factors in the environment like drugs, foods, and toxins may result in some epigenetic changes by changing how the DNA bind by the molecules and the structure change of the proteins that the DNA wraps.

Which number line shows the solution to n &gt; -2​
Margarita [4]

To graph this inequality, start with an open dot on -2.

We use an open dot because n is

greater than -2 but n is not equal to -2.

Next we draw an arrow to the right

to represent all numbers greater than -2.

I have graphed this inequality below too.

The graph below is my own work.

This should correspond to the first answer choice.
