Geography
2 answers:
Andrews [41]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Acid rain, Air pollution (which affect the climate an greenhouse gases), overuse of pesticides,  water pollution, waste treatment and sludge, desertification.

Explanation:

      With the advance of urban areas, livestock activities and forest fires, the fauna and flora were modified. This has wiped out the continent's animal species, such as the lynx and the European bison.

     Desertification is a serious problem in Europe, caused by fires and human action. It results in poor soil fertility, land degradation and large areas of deforestation.

      Acid rain is the emission of polluting gases caused by the excessive use of fossil fuels, which come into contact with substances present in the atmosphere and form acid solutions that fall with the rain and cause many problems such as the death of plankton and fish in lakes and the erosion of outdoor exposed statues.

      Climate change is a problem that Europe is currently facing, research indicates the increase in the greenhouse effect, which is mainly due to the large increase in CO2 emissions. And this increase is a consequence of industrialization, of burning in the forests (accidental fires or due to agricultural practices).

      Rising sea levels, soil degradation and declining biodiversity are some of the consequences of these climate changes and one of the biggest environmental problems facing Europe today.

A problem in mathematics is given to three students A, B and C whose chances of solving it are 1/3, 1/4 and 1/5 respectively. Fi
Tanya [424]

Answer:

i. 3/5

ii. 2/5

Explanation:

Solving the problem by any of the students A, B and C is an independent event as solution by one does not restrict the other one from solving

However, the problem will be solved if even one of them solves the question

Now Probability of not solving the question by A, B and C are

PA (not solving a problem) - 1-1/3 = 2/3

PB (not solving a problem) - 1-1/4 = 3/4

PC (not solving a problem) - 1-1/5 = 4/5

ii) Probability of not solving - 2/3*3/4*4/5 = 2 *1/5 = 2/5

i) Probability of solving - 1- Probability of not solving

= 1 - 2/5 = 3/5
