Answer:

9:00 am

Explanation:

Lines of longitude are imaginary lines running from the north pole to the south pole of earth. These lines are used to calculate the time in places. Also when combined with lines of latitude, they are used to give the exact location of a place.

Given the place is at 45°W longitude and the time at  GMT is 12:00 noon.

Degree difference = 0° (GMT) - 45° = -45°

1° = 4 min

time difference = -45° * 4 min per degree = -180 minutes = -3 hours

Therefore the local time at a place 45°W longitude = 12:00 noon - 3 hours = 9:00 am

larisa [96]

Answer:

1 The Seneca Falls Conference (1848)  

2 Suburban  

3 Density

4 Suffrage

5 Urban  

6 Rural

Explanation:

1. First meeting to begin working for women’s rights organized by Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Lucretia Mott. The Seneca Falls Conference (1848)  

That was indeed the very first official public meeting on the subject of the right to vote for women.  It took more than 70 years to make it become a reality.  This meeting held in New York State, attracted about 300 people, mostly locals, for a 3-day event discussing the women's rights in general and the right to vote in particular.

2. Is a community lying just outside of a larger city area. Suburban  

Suburban means it's not the country side, but it's not the big city it's located next to either.  Suburban areas are mostly residential areas where people live but go to the city to work.  Those areas are filled with houses, restaurants and shopping malls mostly, not corporate offices (they are located downtown, in the city).

3. Refers to the number of people that live in a given urban area. Typically measured by either the square meter or square mile: Density

That's the measure of the number of people living in a given space.  It could be a city, a state or even a country.  It's simply calculated by dividing the number of people by the area they live in.  Based on that, you can say for example that Canada has a people density much lower than the US... because for about the same territory (area), much less people live in Canada.

4. The right to vote in political elections: Suffrage

That's why we called "suffragettes" the people fighting for the right to vote for women.  "Suffrage" also indicates any form of formal votation, like a referendum, in which a very large portion of the  population is invited to cast their vote for or against a resolution.  The issue at hand can be an election, as well as any other state matter.

5. A town or a city area:  Urban

That's where most people work in big countries.  The people go to the city/town to work into offices for example.  That's where the downtown part of the city is.  Some people might live in the city, while others live in the suburban areas around the city.  We often describe the city as the center of the donut and the suburban area are the ring of the donut.

6. Countryside rather than the town, the areas located outside of urban and suburban areas. Typically, thought of as primarily agricultural, it does refer to all areas outside of cities and suburbs such as swamp, forest and mountain areas too:  Rural

This is where food is grown through large fields of plantations, or bovine farms.  The houses are far apart and the roads are much smaller because there is much less traffic, due to having less people transiting.  That also includes areas that are not suitable for buildings like lakes, forests or mountains.
