The correct answer is "Study of tree rings and associated geology shows that the Earth is more than 12,429 years old"
Step-by-step explanation:
While tress have been growing long enough to prove the earth is more than 12,000 years old, it is not able to prove much longer than that. Luckily geology is able to show is that Earth is over 4.6 billions years old. As a result, the above is the only true statement.
Answer: Time taken by him in going = 8 hours
Time taken by him in returning = 9 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total distance from home to New York is x miles,

Also, he drove his car from his home to New York at the rate of 45 mph,
⇒ 
And, returned over the same road at the rate of 40 mph.
⇒ 
According to the question,
Time taken by him in returning - Time taken by him in going = 30 minutes = 1/2 hours, ( 1 hours = 60 minutes )
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
Hence, the total distance from home to New York = x miles = 360 miles
⇒ 

⇒ 

Answer:35in.
Step-by-step explanation:
I reccomend splitting it into sections when given problems like this.
The smaller two rectangles would be 5in * 2in which is 10in then just add them together.
For the bigger one, you'd do 5-2 in order to get the missing inches which will be 3+2 once added 5in*3in is 15in.
Finally, add 15+10+10 (15=The middle rectangle and 10=the sides)
