give the standard mountain where A= 2,00 feet B = 12,000 feet and C = 4,000 feet. IF the temperature at A is 82 degrees F and the dew point temperature is 60 degrees F , what is the elevation in feet of X?
Answer:
A standard temperature lapse rate is when the temperature decreases at the rate of approximately 3.5 °F or 2 °C per thousand feet up to 36,000 feet, which is approximately –65 °F or –55 °C. Above this point, the temperature is considered constant up to 80,000 feet.
Square ABCD and isosceles triangle BUC are drawn to create trapezoid AUCD. Square A B C D and triangle B U C are attached at side B C to create trapezoid A U C D. What is the measure of angle DCU? 45o 90o 120o 135o
Answer:
135°
Explanation:
The measure of angle DCU is 135°.
This is because angle DCU is the combination of a square and a triangle.
One of the angles of the square is 90° + 45° which is the value of one of the angles of an isosceles triangle.
= 135°
Assuming Square ABCD and isosceles triangle BUC are drawn to create trapezoid AUCD. The measure of angle DCU is 135°.
Measure of angle DCUΔDCB=90°
ΔCBU=90°
Hence:
ΔBCU=ΔBUC
ΔBCU=(180°-90°)/2
ΔBCU=45°
Measure of angle DCU:
ΔDCU=ΔDCB+ΔBCU
ΔDCU=90°+45°
ΔDCU=135°
Inconclusion the measure of angle DCU is 135°.

Which describes the boundary where earthquake activity occurs along rift valleys? divergent boundary in the ocean
Answer:
The correct answer is "Divergent boundary in the ocean ".
Explanation:
The so-called divergent limits when two oceanic plates move apart. Ultimately, divergent borders between hemispheres or continentals generate rifts that eventually generate rift valleys.Alongside oceanic flats seem to be the dynamic or energetic divergent bounds as well as they are frequently dubbed midfield furrows.So the preceding solution is the right one.

Cuales son los distintos tipos de productores en América Lantina?
Answer:
La región de América Latina y El Caribe cubre alrededor de 2050 m de ha y está conformada por 42 países con una población estimada de 505 m para el 2000. El tamaño de la región y la gran variedad de condiciones ecológicas favorables que presenta, sumadas a una densidad poblacional relativamente baja de 0,25 personas/ha y a tasas de urbanización que alcanzan el 75% han permitido el desarrollo y conservación de niveles extremadamente altos de biodiversidad. Según el Programa de las Naciones Unidas para el Medio Ambiente, (PNUMA)1, cinco de los diez países más ricos en términos de biodiversidad se encuentran en la LAC; además, la región presenta un 36% de los principales alimentos cultivados y especies industriales. La región más extensa de bosque tropical no fragmentado se encuentra en la Cuenca Amazónica, a esto se añade que la región posee un 28% del área forestal mundial - aproximadamente 1000 millones de ha para 1994.
Parte de esta abundancia surge de las condiciones climáticas relativamente favorables de la región. Esta cuenta con un 40 por ciento del total de áreas húmedas y con aproximadamente la mitad del total de los recursos hídricos renovables de los países en desarrollo, no obstante, presenta únicamente el cuatro por ciento de tierras áridas y semiáridas. Alrededor del 90% del territorio de la LAC corresponde a tierras húmedas y subhúmedas.
En 1999 la LAC poseía alrededor de 160 m de ha de tierra cultivada2, incluyendo 18 m de ha bajo riego. Esto representa únicamente el 18% del potencial estimado de la región3; además se estima que no más del 1% del agua disponible en la LAC se utiliza en la actualidad4. Aproximadamente 600 m de ha son tierras de pastoreo. La región es importante al nivel mundial en un sinnúmero de cultivos y por lo general obtiene rendimientos por encima del promedio de los países en desarrollo.
Con un promedio de US$ 3 940 del PIB per capita en 1998, la LAC es la región en desarrollo más rica del mundo y es también una de las que menos depende de la agricultura - tan sólo un 8% del PIB provenía de este sector en 1998. Puesto que el crecimiento del valor agregado agrícola es menor que para la industria o servicios, es muy probable que esta proporción continúe descendiendo. Más aún, la información nutricional de la FAO indica que la dieta promedio de la LAC contiene 120% de la necesidad energética mínima requerida al día5, mientras que el índice alimentario regional per cápita según la Comisión Económica para América Latina y el Caribe (CEPAL) experimentó un incremento del 15% durante el período 1980-19976.
A pesar de lo mencionado anteriormente, en la región existen serios problemas de equidad. No solamente los poderosos controlan una de las mayores proporciones de recursos del mundo7, sino que además existe un fuerte sesgo urbano. Según estimados de la CEPAL8 en 1997, el 54% de hogares rurales de la región se catalogó como pobre, en contraste con un 30% en las áreas urbanas. La extrema pobreza9 afectó al 31% de hogares rurales, y únicamente al 10% en las áreas urbanas. En total, se determinó que 47 m de habitantes rurales viven en la extrema pobreza y que 78 m están en la pobreza. Las cifras de pobreza internacionales varían considerablemente en los países estudiados en la región -entre el 2% de la población que percibe un ingreso menor a 1US$ diario en Uruguay (cifras de 1989) y el 40% que recibe esta misma cantidad tanto en Guatemala como en Honduras10. Los problemas de equidad son particularmente evidentes con respecto a la distribución de la tierra11.

Determine whether the sentences describe sedimentary rock, intrusive igneous rock, or both.
Answer:
left to right
Explanation:
Answer:
Sedimentary rocks: They are made of weather pieces of rocks
They are formed above earth's surface
Both: They have a diverse composition, they may contain many types of minerals.
They are solid at room temperatures.
Intrusive Igneous Rocks: They are made of molten rocks called magma.
They are formed in Earth's crust or mantle.
Explanation:
Sedimentary rocks:
first one is obvious, sedimentary rocks are made from weathering
second one is tricky, although both Sedimentary rocks and Igneous Rocks could potentially form above earth's surface, the category provided here is "Intrusive Igneous Rocks", which is formed under Earth's surface, only extrusive Igneous rocks are formed above Earth's surface.
Both:
They are both rocks not minerals so they definitely have diverse compositions.
And one of the factors of rocks is that they are solid in room temperature.
Intrusive Igneous Rocks:
Igneous rocks are made when magma cools down.
Earth's crust is the solid part and the most outer part of Earth's layer, Extrusive Igneous rocks happened to form here when magma cools down and solidifies, mantle is the second outer part of Earth, where some intrusive rocks are solidified while still in the magma.
