Answer:

We are losing Earth's greatest biological treasures just as we are beginning to appreciate their true value. Rainforests once covered 14% of the earth's land surface; now they cover a mere 6% and experts estimate that the last remaining rainforests could be consumed in less than 40 years.

One and one-half acres of rainforest are lost every second with tragic consequences for both developing and industrial countries.

Rainforests are being destroyed because the value of rainforest land is perceived as only the value of its timber by short-sighted governments, multi-national logging companies, and land owners.

Nearly half of the world's species of plants, animals and microorganisms will be destroyed or severely threatened over the next quarter century due to rainforest deforestation.

Experts estimates that we are losing 137 plant, animal and insect species every single day due to rainforest deforestation. That equates to 50,000 species a year. As the rainforest species disappear, so do many possible cures for life-threatening diseases. Currently, 121 prescription drugs sold worldwide come from plant-derived sources. While 25% of Western pharmaceuticals are derived from rainforest ingredients, less that 1% of these tropical trees and plants have been tested by scientists.

Most rainforests are cleared by chainsaws, bulldozers and fires for its timber value and then are followed by farming and ranching operations, even by world giants like Mitsubishi Corporation, Georgia Pacific, Texaco and Unocal.

There were an estimated ten million Indians living in the Amazonian Rainforest five centuries ago. Today there are less than 200,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

All of them are true.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 y - z / x^2 is true. x^2, when divided by itself, cancels itself out, so the equation that is left is y - z.

For the second one, a/c + b/c is true because when you add a + b = it will change; it will be added together. the remaining c will stay the same, as it is the denominator/the same, so you keep it as it is.

For the final one, you distribute ^2 to (a+b), so they become a^2 + b^2.

This means that all of the statements are true.

Answer:

c = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Pythagorean Theorem:

Plug in the values of a = 14, and b = 48

[tex]a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}\\14^{2} +48^{2} =c^{2} \\c^{2} = 2500\\c = \sqrt{2500} \\c = 50[/tex]

Answer:

a₁₅ = 71

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Here a₁ = 1 and d = 6 - 1 = 5 , then

a₁₅ = 1 + (14 × 5) = 1 + 70 = 71

Answer:

184

Step-by-step explanation:

First, note that the sides that are opposite to each other are congruent (this will come into play in a second). We can find the area of each triangle by doing 0.5(b)(h) (aka half * base* height). Since we've established tha opposite sides are congruent and the triangles are opposite to each other, they must be congruent. That means that the area is going to be the exact same for both triangles. So, we get the expression (0.5)(6)(4)(2), which comes out to 6*4 = 24. Then, to find the area of the 2 rectangles that are the sides, just do 5*10*2 = 100 square meters for both rectangles combines. Lastly, we need to find the area of the floor. The dimensions of the floor are 6 and 10, so we just do 6*10 = 60. Now, add all those numbers together. We get 100+60+24 = 184. Hope this helps! Let me know if anything is still confusing.

Answer:

<S= 88degrees

<Q = <R = 46degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the base angles of the isosceles triangle are equal hence;

<Q = <R

5x - 14 = 4x -2

5x - 4x  = -2 +1 4

x = -2 + 14

x = 12

Since <Q = 5x - 14

<Q = 5(12) - 14

<Q = 60 - 14

<Q = 46degrees

Also <Q = <R = 46degrees

Similarly; <S + <Q + <R =180

<S +46 + 46 = 180

<+92 = 180

<S = 180 - 92

<S= 88degrees

Answer:

x = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

√100 = 10, √36 = 6, √225 = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

100 can be made by 10^2 (10 x 10), 36 has factors of 6 and can be made by 6^2, and 225 can be made by 15^2.

[tex] \sqrt{100} = \sqrt{10 \times 10} [/tex] = [tex]\boxed{10}[/tex]

[tex] \sqrt{36} = \sqrt{6 \times 6} [/tex] = [tex]\boxed{6}[/tex]

[tex] \sqrt{225} = \sqrt{15 \times 15} [/tex] = [tex]\boxed{15}[/tex]

Answer:

Your loan was for $16,000.  

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for simple interest is i = prt, where p is the principal, r is the interest rate as a decimal fraction, and t is the time in years.

If i = prt, then p = i / (rt)

Here, p = ($1200) / 0.075 = $16,000

Your loan was for $16,000.

The transformation of a function may involve any change. The correct option is A.

The transformation of a function may involve any change.

Usually, these can be shifted horizontally (by transforming inputs) or vertically (by transforming output), stretched (multiplying outputs or inputs) etc.

If the original function is y = f(x), assuming the horizontal axis is the input axis and the vertical is for outputs, then:

Horizontal shift (also called phase shift):

Vertical shift

Stretching:

Given the function of f(x) as sin(x), Now it can be seen the graph of the two functions is parallel, but the function f(x) has a y-intercept of 0, while h(x) has a y-intercept of 1. Therefore, we can write,

h(x) = f(x) + 1

The function is shifted up by 1 unit.

Hence, the transformation of the function is correctly described in the first option.

Answer:

$280

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find attached the image of the tent

cost of the tent = cost per square inch x total surface area of a triangular prism

total surface area of a triangular prism = (perimeter x height) + 2(area of a triangle)

Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height = 1/2 x 40 x 50 = 1000in²

1000 x 2 = 2000

Perimeter = 50 + 50 + 50 = 150

150 x 80 = 12,000

total surface area = 12,000 + 2000 = 14,000

Total cost = 14,000 x 0.02 = $280

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 2y = −2

Divide by two on both sides

2x+y = -1

subtract 2x from both sides

y = -1 -2x = -2x -1

Answer:

y = -2x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 2y = -2

→ Minus 4x from both sides

2y = -4x - 2

→ Divide both sides by 2

y = -2x - 1

Answer:

15.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 12 marbles in total and there are 5 red marbles, so the probability of getting a red marble is 5/12. There are now 11 marbles and there are 4 blue marbles. So the probability of getting a blue marble is 4/11.

You multiply these 2 values together.

5/12 * 4/11 = 20/132 = 0.1515

This is about 15.2%
