In the last few years improvements in technology have allowed geologists to date single grains of some minerals in rocks. A geol

ogist separates 5 grains of the mineral zircon, which can be dated by the Uranium-lead method, and the crystal retains parent and daughter through weathering, erosion, and deposition. Thus, dating each mineral grain only gives the age of the source rock that was eroded, to produce that sand, from which the zircon grain is derived. The 5 grains yield ages of 160, 110, 2020, 66, and 162 million years. What do these ages tell you about the age of the sedimentary strata

A section of a topographic map is shown below. What is the difference in elevation in meters between Point X and Point Y on the
musickatia [10]

The difference in elevation in meters between the points X and Y is 360.

Explanation:

On the presented map we can see that the relief is depicted with contour lines. The contour lines are marked with their elevations, or rather the main contour lines are, every fifth one. We also have the contour interval, which is 20 meters, thus giving us the basis so that we can find the difference in elevation between any points on the map.

What we know for sure from the map is:

  • the elevation is increasing from southeast toward northwest
  • the difference in elevation between the contour lines is 20 m
  • the difference in elevation between the main contour lines is 100 m

Point X is marked on the contour line of 1,600 m. Point Y is marked on the second contour line between the 1,200 m and 1,300 m contour lines, thus:

2 x 20 = 40

So we have 1,240 m. Having the elevations of the two points, we only need to take the lower value from the larger value:

1,600 - 1,240 = 360 m

So we get a result of 360 m of difference in elevation between the points X and Y.

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

  • It can change over time for certain kinds of loans.
  • It is the interest charged each year for a loan.
  • It can be reduced to reflect the borrower’s credit history.

Explanation:

The annual percentage rate is the amount of interest that is charged to the loanee for borrowing the loan and it is different for different types of loans such that with some kinds it can change overtime based on certain factors such as inflation.

Percentage rates are a reflection of the riskiness of the borrower so if the borrower has a good credit history, the rate can be reduced to show that the borrower is not too risky.

This is the correct rank.

1.- Eastern Pacific Ocean.

2.- Western Europe.

3.- North Canada.

4.- Southern Africa.

5.- Antarctic Ocean Australia.

Scientists agree that 2018 was one of the warmest years on planet earth. The weather phenomenon called "El Niño" o "La Niña" directly affects the temperature of the planet each year. The region of the Mediterranean Sea had the most elevated temperatures. On the other hand, regions of North America and Canada had lower temperatures than average.
