A bus travels 36 miles in 60 minutes. At the same rate, what distance will
the bus travel in 90 minutes? Show your work.

Answers

Answer:

This way seems to make a lot more sense to me:

Solve for X.

 

(45 minutes)/(60 minutes) = (36 miles)/X

 

Multipy both sides by X/1.

 

(45 minutes)/(60 minutes) * X = (36 miles)

 

Simplify.

 

0.75 * X = (36 miles)

 

Divide both sides by 0.75.

 

X = (36 miles)/.75

 

X = 48 miles

 

So, the answer is the bus travels 48 miles in 60 minutes at that constant rate

Answers

Answer:

B. Women who enjoy a higher social status are usually more educated than women of a lower  social status.

Explanation:

Those who enjoy a higher social status are usually more educated than those who don't. Wealthier people have access to better schools and tutors, which increases their chances of getting into a good university or college. That's what leads to them being more educated than people of a lower social status, who struggle to get a good education. This goes for both men and women.

Women of a lower social status often have more children than women of a higher status, which makes option C incorrect.

Option D is also incorrect as women who enjoy a higher status are more likely to have healthcare resources. If you don't earn a lot, you are less likely to have good insurance, which makes life even more difficult.

This is why option B is the correct one.

How have the earth’s continents moved over time? What is some evidence?

Answers

Answer:

Here hope it helps good luck

Explanation:

Wegener suggested that perhaps the rotation of the Earth caused the continents to shift towards and apart from each other. (It doesn't.) Today, we know that the continents rest on massive slabs of rock called tectonic plates. The plates are always moving and interacting in a process called plate tectonics. The rock formations of eastern North America, Western Europe, and northwestern Africa were later found to have a common origin, and they overlapped in time with the presence of Gondwanaland. Together, these discoveries supported the existence of Pangea. Modern geology has shown that Pangea did actually exist.

Evidence for the movement of continents on tectonic plates is now extensive. Similar plant and animal fossils are found around the shores of different continents, suggesting that they were once joined.

Write a 2-3 sentence summary about Egypt's background:
please help, I've been reading sentences over and over again and i can't grasp onto it. it would be very much appreciated...

Background: The regularity and richness of the annual Nile River flood, coupled with semi-isolation provided by deserts to the east and west, allowed for the development of one of the world's great civilizations. A unified kingdom arose circa 3200 B.C., and a series of dynasties ruled in Egypt for the next three millennia. The last native dynasty fell to the Persians in 341 B.C., who in turn were replaced by the Greeks, Romans, and Byzantines. It was the Arabs who introduced Islam and the Arabic language in the 7th century and who ruled for the next six centuries. A local military caste, the Mamluks took control about 1250 and continued to govern after the conquest of Egypt by the Ottoman Turks in 1517. Completion of the Suez Canal in 1869 elevated Egypt as an important world transportation hub. Ostensibly to protect its investments, Britain seized control of Egypt's government in 1882, but nominal allegiance to the Ottoman Empire continued until 1914. Partially independent from the UK in 1922, Egypt acquired full sovereignty from Britain in 1952. The completion of the Aswan High Dam in 1971 and the resultant Lake Nasser have reaffirmed the time-honored place of the Nile River in the agriculture and ecology of Egypt. A rapidly growing population (the largest in the Arab world), limited arable land, and dependence on the Nile all continue to overtax resources and stress society. The government has struggled to meet the demands of Egypt's fast-growing population as it implements far-reaching economic reforms, including the reduction of select subsidies, large-scale infrastructure projects, energy cooperation, and foreign direct investment appeals.

Inspired by the 2010 Tunisian revolution, Egyptian opposition groups led demonstrations and labor strikes countrywide, culminating in President Hosni MUBARAK's ouster in 2011. Egypt's military assumed national leadership until a new legislature was in place in early 2012; later that same year, Muhammad MURSI won the presidential election. Following protests throughout the spring of 2013 against MURSI's government and the Muslim Brotherhood, the Egyptian Armed Forces intervened and removed MURSI from power in July 2013 and replaced him with interim president Adly MANSOUR. Simultaneously, the government began enacting laws to limit freedoms of assembly and expression. In January 2014, voters approved a new constitution by referendum and in May 2014 elected former defense minister Abdelfattah ELSISI president. Egypt elected a new legislature in December 2015, its first Hose of Representatives since 2012. ELSISI was reelected to a second four-year term in March 2018. In April 2019, Egypt approved via national referendum a set of constitutional amendments extending ELSISI’s term in office through 2024 and possibly through 2030 if re-elected for a third term. The amendments would also allow future presidents up to two consecutive six-year terms in office, re-establish an upper legislative house, allow for one or more vice presidents, establish a 25% quota for female legislators, reaffirm the military’s role as guardian of Egypt, and expand presidential authority to appoint the heads of judicial councils.

Which is one way poor use of fertilizers in agriculture can affect the environment
A. It can increase the ability of many species to find suitable habitats
B. It can cause pollution of water in lakes and rivers
C. It can cause an increase in greenhouse gases
D. It can reduce the amount of sediment in the local waterways

Answers

Answer:

B. It can cause pollution of water in lakes and rivers

Explanation:

Poor use of fertilizers in Agriculture can affect the environment because they cause pollution of water in lakes and rivers.

Pollution is the introduction of filth or unwanted materials into the environment.

When fertilizers are poorly applied on farms, they can cause pollution of nearby water bodies. Rain water usually during a down pour can wash them off into surrounding water bodies. They can also even infiltrate into the ground water systems. On getting into the rivers and lakes the alter the chemical balance and lead to severe pollution. One of such is eutrophication.

So, poorly applied fertilizers can cause pollution of water in lakes and rivers.
