a. Based on the linear graphs, the state that has the highest level of air pollution particles is given by the relation
[tex]2006 \, air \, polution \, values + \dfrac{(2015 \, air \, polution \, values)- (2006 \, air \, polution \, values)}{2015 - 2006} \times (2014 - 2006)[/tex]
[tex]2006 \, air \, polution \, values + \dfrac{(2015 \, air \, polution \, values)- (2006 \, air \, polution \, values)}{9} \times 8[/tex]
Therefore, for Wyoming, we have;
[tex]5 + \dfrac{(<5)- (5)}{9} \times 8 < 5 \ p \ p\ t[/tex]
For Virginia, we have;
[tex]13 + \dfrac{8 - 13}{9} \times 8 = 8.6 \ p \ p\ t[/tex]
For North Carolina, we have;
[tex]13 + \dfrac{9 - 13}{9} \times 8 = 9.44 \ p \ p\ t[/tex]
For Maryland, we have;
[tex]13 + \dfrac{10 - 13}{9} \times 8 = 10.33 \ p \ p\ t[/tex]
For Tennessee, we have;
[tex]13.5 + \dfrac{9 - 13.5}{9} \times 8 = 9.5 \ p \ p\ t[/tex]
Therefore, Maryland has the highest level of air polluton particles for the year 2014
b. From the available data, Wyoming shows the least change in air pollution particles from 2006 to 2015 with a change from 5 p p t to < 5 p p t

1. Using a Key Which mineral is mined in the most locations?
Answer:
Coal: 7.4 billion tonnes
Explanation:
The World Coal Association estimates that there are more than one trillion tonnes of coal reserves worldwide, enough to last 150 years at current rates of production, so it is unsurprising to see coal ranked as the most-mined mineral in the world.
While China has consistently led the world in production – the country was responsible for 3.3 billion tonnes in 2016 – this was down 16% from the 3.9 billion tonnes produced in 2012. Chinese coal output slumped below the 3.4 billion tonne-threshold predicted in 2016 and the trend may continue, as renewable energy sources become more widespread.
The Chinese decline has mirrored a trend in worldwide coal production, which fell to 7.4 billion tonnes in 2016 from 8.2 billion in 2012. While coal production has increased in Australia and Russia in the last five years, both South Africa and the US have seen sharp declines in production of anthracite and bituminous coal. American coal production in particular has fallen from over 900 million tonnes in 2012 to 782 million in 2016, the lowest figure since 1979.

Anna has 2 purple lipsticks, 3 red lipsticks and 3 pink lipsticks in her kit. She picks one lipstick, records its color, puts it back in the kit and draws another lipstick. What is the probability of taking out a purple lipstick followed by the red lipstick?
Answer:
3/32
Explanation:
Since she is putting all of the lipsticks back in the kit, that means she will always have the same "denominator" for all the probabilities.
The equation would look something like this: 2/8 * 3/8 = 6/64 = 3/32
Write a paragraph comparing the changes between Usa and russia during the cold war.
Answer:
During the Cold war, Russia who before use to be ruled in a monarchy changed into a communist country. There main goal during this time was to change other countries into communism. That is why countries Like China and Cuba supported each other by having the same form of government in common.

The USA had many different Presidents during this time but the most famous for this is John F.Kennedy. Also not to mention the U.S has spent billions on helping other countries with any economics countries. Since many people struggled in this time, financial aid was needed. To add on, the cold war almost resulted in defcon 2 which could possible be the end of the world. Luckily that didn't happen and then the cold war shifted to the Space war.

Many earthquakes, shown in the map as wide bands, occur along convergent areas. These areas experience varying depths of earthquakes.
Where would oceanic-oceanic convergence most likely occur?
A. Nazca plate converging with the South America plate, forming the Andes mountains
B. Philippine plate converging with the Pacific plate, forming Mariana Islands in the Pacific Ocean
C. Juan de Fuca converging with the North American plate, forming the Cascade mountains
D. North America Plate converging with the Eurasian Plate, forming a mid-ocean ridge
Answer:
B. Philippine plate converging with the Pacific plate, forming Mariana Islands in the Pacific Ocean
Explanation:
A convergent boundary is a boundary where tectonic plates collides with each other. Convergent boundary is a region of mild to high earthquake activity. The collision maybe between a continental plate and oceanic plate , continental plates or oceanic plates.
When two plates converge the result will depend on the type of plate they are made of. When oceanic plates collides with a continental plates the denser oceanic plates will subduct or plunge beneath the continental plates. The continental plate is less dense an more buoyant so it will conveniently override the oceanic plate.
Continental - continental plates collisions causes an uprising since both plates are buoyant and less dense. This kind of collision creates one of the highest mountain ranges.
When two oceanic plates collides the denser plate subduct into the mantle. This subduction result to an oceanic trench, volcanic arc and earthquakes. The Philippine plate comprises of oceanic crust while the pacific plate is an oceanic crust . Therefore,a collision between this two plates is an oceanic- oceanic plate collision. The collision between this two plates causes an Island arc known as Mariana Island.

What is the centrality of Geography and could you please attach a diagram to it.
Explanation:
Geographical centrality is an evolving concept that differs from one perspective to another at different stages. The unprecedented development of high-speed information and transportation networks has highlighted the important role of space of flows and has restructured the mode of spatial interaction.
Answer: In graph theory and network analysis, indicators of centrality identify the most important vertices within a graph. Applications include identifying the most influential person(s) in a social network, key infrastructure nodes in the Internet or urban networks, and super-spreaders of disease. Centrality concepts were first developed in social network analysis, and many of the terms used to measure centrality reflect their sociological origin. They should not be confused with node influence metrics, which seek to quantify the influence of every node in the network.

uake formation? Select three options.
Answer:
- plates moving;
- breaking rocks;
- movement bellow the surface;
Explanation:
The earthquakes are a direct result of the plate tectonics. In order for an earthquake to appear, there should be a geologic activity caused by the movement of the tectonic plates. The movement of the tectonic plates causes a lot of pressure on the rocks. The rocks eventually break at certain places under the pressure. A they break, there's movement bellow the surface, or rather inside the crust, also referred to as adjustment. That movement and the release of power from it, causes lot of strong vibrations. The vibrations spread out and start shaking the ground in the surrounding area, which is actually the earthquake itself.

if hcf is 192 then what is lcm
Answer:
LCM = 40320
Explanation:
This question is incomplete as we are not told the numbers that was used to derive the HCF.
Let's consider the following question:
The HCF of two numbers 2880 and 2688 is 192. What is the LCM?
Solution:
HCF means = highest common factor
LCM = lowest common multiple
Find attached the solution to the question.
The HCF is found by Picking the factors (prime numbers) common to both numbers. These factors are multiplied together to get the highest common factor.
The LCM is found by picking the factors common to both numbers and the remaining factors not common to both. These are then multiplied to get the lowest common multiple of the two numbers
In this case, the factors common = HCF = 2×2×2×2×2×2×3
Factors not common to both numbers =2×3×5×7
the LCM = 2×2×2×2×2×2×3 ×2×3×5×7
= 2×2×2×2×2×2×2×3×3×5×7
LCM = 40320

Answer:
Explanation:
The supporting group for conserving the taiga appeal to the land's natural beauty, unique wildlife, and in some cases, the tourism industry that might depend on the taiga's hiking or skiing trails.
Unfortunately, the groups behind exploiting the taiga are often multi-billion dollar companies who would like to push their own initiative in harvesting the valuable minerals and oils that often reside in these lands. They cite the lack of people and possible profits to be gained from the exploitations to convince governments to allow them access rights.
