  1. The slowly increasing distance between South America and Africa is due to: a. <u>Seafloor Spreading</u>.
  2. Old Faithful Geyser at Yellowstone National Park in the United States of America acquires its energy from a: b. Hot Spot.
  3. Layered <u>sedimentary rock</u> exposed by erosion can be seen when looking at the Grand Canyon in the United States of America.
  4. Australia is made up of relatively old and thick: d. Continental Crust.
  5. The extremely deep ocean Marianas Trench is a result of: g. Subduction.
  6. <u>Seafloor Crust</u>: found in the Atlantic Ocean between North America and Europe comprises dense and relatively young rock.
  7. The earthquakes that occur in Southern California generally occur above a: f. Fault.

<h3>What is seafloor spreading?</h3>

<u>Seafloor spreading</u> can be defined as a process that involves the formation of new oceanic crust as a result of volcanic activities and an upwelling of molten magma at mid-ocean ridges, as well as a slowly increasing distance (outward movement) from the ridge.

The theory of <u>seafloor spreading</u> was established by Harry Hammond Hess and it can be used to explain in details the slowly increasing distance between South America and Africa which grows from the center.

<h3>What is a hot spot?</h3>

A <u>hot spot</u> refers to an area deep within Earth's mantle or under the rocky outermost layer of Earth, from which heat rises through convection and acquired as heat energy by a landform.

In the United States of America, you will see a layered <u>sedimentary rock</u> that is exposed by erosion when you view the Grand Canyon.

Furthermore, Australia is made up of relatively old and thick <u>continental crust</u>. Also, <u>subduction</u> causes the formation of extremely deep ocean Marianas Trench.

What is the range of the following function:<br> y = 2(5^x) - 1
Orlov [11]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The range of the function is:

Range: y>2

or

Range: (2,∞+)

<h2>Why?</h2>

To calculate the range of the following function (exponential function) we need to perform the following steps:

First: Find the value of "x"

So, finding "x" we have:

y=2(5^{x}-1)\\\frac{y}{2}=5^{x}-1\\\\\frac{y}{2}-1=5^{x}\\\\Log_{5}(\frac{y}{2}-1)=Log_5(5^{x})\\\\x=Log_{5}(\frac{y}{2}-1)

Second: Interpret the restriction of the function:

Since we are working with logarithms, we know that the only restriction that we found is that the logarithmic functions exist only from 0 to the possitive infinite without considering the number 1.

So, we can see that if the variable "x" is a real number, "y" must be greater than 2 because if it's equal to 2 the expression inside the logarithm will tend to 0, and since the logarithm of 0 does not exist in the real numbers, the variable "x" would not be equal to a real number.

Hence, the range of the function is:

Range: y>2

or

Range: (2,∞+)

Note: I have attached a picture (the graph of the function) for better understanding.

Have a nice day!

Price after off =80-  1/4 * 80 = 80-20 = $60

Coupon discount = 60*10/100 = $6

So, he have to pay, 60-6 = $54

Find p(2) and p(4) for the function p(x) = 6x4 + 4x3 – 3x2 + 8x + 15.
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

p(2) =147 and p(4) = 1791

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given p(x)= 6x^4 + 4x^3 – 3x^2 + 8x + 15.

Now we need to find value of p(2) and p(4)

Put x =2,

p(2) = 6(2)^4 + 4(2)^3 – 3(2)^2 + 8(2) + 15

p(2) = 6(16)+4(8)-3(4)+8(2)+15

p(2) = 96+32-12+16+15

p(2) = 147

Now put x = 4

p(4) = 6(4)^4 + 4(4)^3 – 3(4)^2 + 8(4) + 15

p(4) = 6(256)+4(64)-3(16)+8(4)+15

p(4) = 1536+256-48+32+15

p(4) = 1791
