Provide examples of the way maps are helping local governments become more democratic.

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Maps help local governments become more democratic by giving local governments are more precise spatial knowledge of the regions that they govern.

This also applies for national or federal governments. Maps are an increasingly important source of information for government at all levels, because they are a great tool to place all kinds of information about a region: demographic information, economic information, physical geography information, and so on.

Find an equation for the perpendicular bisector of the line segment whose endpoints

zzz [600]

Answer:

y= -7/2x-26/2 or y= -7/2x-13

Explanation:

To solve this question you need all of these formulas:

gradient: $\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$ , Point-Slope $y-y1=m(x-x1)$ ,

perpendicular m $(m1)x(m2)=-1$ , Midpoint $(\frac{x1+x2}{2}$ , $\frac{y1+y2}{2} )$

and equation of a line $y=mx+c$

where m stands for gradient

First things first.

To start you have to know the data of the line that includes the two endpoints, so you calculate its gradient (m) of this line with the gradient fromula: $m=\frac{-4-(-8)}{5-(-9)}$ , which equals 4/14 or 2/7

(It can also be called rise/run) (Remember the rule of signs where - and - equal +)

with that information you can proceed with the point-slope or point-gradient formula, so you plug the values: y-(-8) = 2/7 (x-(-9)), which results in y+8=2/7(x+9) and then y+8=2/7x+18/7.

To finish the equation you move eight to the other side. To simplify things you can change it into a fraction as I did, and remember to change signs.

y=2/7x+18/7 -8 -> y=2/7x+18/7-56/7 . This gives us the number of y=2/7x-38/7, which is the equation of the first line.

Now to know the gradient of the second line you apply the formula of perpendicular bisector where m1 x m2 = -1. We know m1 (gradient of the first line) is 2/7, so m2 = $\frac{-1}{2/7}$ = -7/2. m2 is therefore -7/2

Now you have to know the midpoint between the two endpoints, which will act as the start point of the perpendicular bisector

M (midpoint) = $(\frac{-9+5}{2} ,$ $\frac{8+(-4)}{2} )$ , which give us the coordinates of (-2, -6)

(remember, x coordinate is always first)

with this point we can apply again the point-slope formula to know the equation of the line:

y-(-6)=-7/2(x-(-2)) -> y+6=-7/2(x+2) -> y+6=-7/2x - 14/2

Move the 6 to isolate the y

y=-7/2x -14/2 - 12/2

which equals y= -7/2x -26/2

To make sure the answer is correct.

Hope it helps :)

Where in North America has recent glacial activity occurred?

Daniel [21]

Answer:

It radically altered the geography of North America north of the Ohio River. At the height of the Wisconsin Episode glaciation, ice covered most of Canada, the Upper Midwest, and New England, as well as parts of Montana and Washington.

Which physical feature is the largest in Europe and is where most crops are grown?

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

East European Plain is the largest physical feature in Europe and it is where most crops are grown.

Explanation:

Europe is part of the Eurasian continental mass, appearing as a huge peninsula of it. It is part of this landmass that in some parts is tectonically highly active, while in some parts it is very calm and without internal disturbances. This has caused the formation of multiple different physical features that often define a region.

The largest physical feature is located in an area that doesn't experience any particular tectonic activity. This physical feature is the East European Plain. It is stretching from Poland to the Ural Mountains west to east, with the Baltic Sea and Finland marking its northern boundary, and the Carpathians, Black Sea, and the Caucasus Mountains marked its southern boundary. This plain os often referred to as Russian Plain as well, and it also has to be taken into consideration that it is actually connected with the North European Plain and French Plain, so it can comfortably be said that this system of plains actually stretches from the Atlantic coast to the Ural Mountains. Being a lowland area with highly fertile soil, it is the region in Europe that is most used for agriculture and it is where the majority of the crops are produced.
