Find the equation of a line that is parallel to line g that contains (P, Q).

Geography

Naddik [55]3 years ago

Answer:

x - y = P - Q

Explanation:

The equation of the line that is parallel to line g, will have the same slope as line g.

Find the slope of line g using two points on the line, (-3, 2) and (0, 5):

slope (m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{5 - 2}{0 - (-3)} = \frac{3}{3} = 1

m = 1

Point-slope equation takes the form, y - b = m(x - a), where,

(a, b) is a point the line passes through

m = slope of the line

If the line parallel to g passes through (P, Q), then the equation can be written as follows:

Substitute (a, b) = (P, Q), and m = 1 into y - b = m(x - a).

Thus:

y - Q = 1(x - P)

y - Q = x - P

Rewrite

P - Q = x - y

x - y = P - Q

The image shows sedimentary rock layers with index fossils and a fault.
svetlana [45]

The correct answer is - Layer 2 and layer 9 are the same relative age.

On this image we can see multiple layers that have been cut through and displaced by a fault. The layer 2 and the layer 9 despite not being at the same level, with level 2 being closer to the surface, while layer 9 deeper into the ground, we can still see signs that they actually have the same relative age.

We can notice that these two layers have the same relative age because of two things. The first thing is the index fossils, with both of these layers having the same fossils from the same geologic period. The second thing that gives us a clue is their composition which is pretty much identical, thus indicating of a same geological period.

Europeans used the Mississippi and the Amazon rivers to meet their business
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

The Europeans, apart from doing their business through the Mississippi and Amazon, brought diseases to the native populations.

Explanation:

When the Europeans started to explore the Americas, they were trying their best to establish the best possible foundations for business and to make a big profit from it. This led to using everything that was at disposal, and the large rivers, like the Mississippi and Amazon, were excellent for easy travel and transportation over long distances. While these rivers served the Europeans very well, it brought tragedy to the natives.

Not always the Europeans were agressive to the native populations, but actually, more often than not they tried to establish good relations with them because in that manner they were able to have greater benefit. Unfortunately, through the interaction, the Europeans transmitted multiple diseases to the natives for which they did not have immune system capable of coping with them. This led to mass dying out of native populations. Both continents were heavily affected by this, and while often forgotten, the Amazon basin, with the new discoveries and what has been written in the exploration books by the Europeans, might have had several million-strong populations, which dissapeared in only a few decades.
