Answer:

D. Distortion.

Explanation:

In Geography, topography can be defined as the shape and structure of the Earth surface. Thus, a flat map is used to graphically describe this features.

Generally, elevations are represented on maps by lines of contour, which typically connect points having the same elevation. Also, elevations are shown on a physical map by using bands of color to connect points. In Geography, elevations are represented or measured in feets or meters.

Contours can be defined imaginary lines used for connecting locations that are having similar elevations on the Earth's surface. These contour lines are typically used for modeling the three-dimensional shape of the Earth surface in a map.

Hence, the changes in shape, size, and position of features that occur when representing the Earth on a flat map take place because of distortion.

To kill the white pine blister, the forestry department decided to apply pesticide to the trees. They must directly apply the se
Stels [109]

The Forestry Department is using a <u>chemical</u> control method. This involves using a <u>foliar spray </u>method, in which department personnel will spray pesticide directly on the trees’ leaves.

Explanation:

The chemical control method of pesticide control involves spraying chemical pesticides directly on leaves, shoots or roots of the plants. These chemicals are toxic to the pests only and the pests get retracted from the plants because of the pesticides applied.

A selective pesticide application is done to limit application to a target harmful pest which kills only that and does not harm the other useful or harmless species which thrives on the plants.

White pine blister causes rust of the branches and leaves of the pine trees. Hence, a foliar spray of the pesticide is done to control its spread.

G(x) = 2x2 - 6<br> h(x) = -6x + 16
Zielflug [23.3K]

f(x) = x? & g(x) = 2x + 1

(f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x)

= (x2) + (2x + 1)

= x2 + 2x + 1,

(f + g) (x) = x2 + 2x + 1

(f-g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)

= (x2) - (2x + 1)
