A(n) __________ is to a parallelogram as a square is to a rectangle.
rhombus
A rhombus is a parallelogram with four equal-length sides. A square is a rectangle with four equal-length sides.
If there were a total of 350 raffle tickets sold and you bought 24 tickets, what's the probability that you'll win the raffle?
You have 24 out of the total of 350 raffle tickets sold so you have a (\( \frac{24}{350} \)) x 100 = \( \frac{24 \times 100}{350} \) = \( \frac{2400}{350} \) = 7% chance to win the raffle.
pH is a scale that measures of how basic or acidic a solution is. A solution with a pH of 9 is:
alkaline
An acid is a substance that gives up positively charged hydrogen ions (H+) when dissolved in water. A base (alkaline) gives up negatively charged hydroxide ions (OH-) when dissolved in water. pH is a scale that measures of how basic or acidic a solution is. Numbered from 0 to 14, solutions with a pH of 7 are neutral, less than 7 are acidic, more than 7 are alkaline.
This tool is a(n) __________.
adjustable wrench
Wrenches are used to provide grip and mechanical advantage by applying torque to turn objects (or to keep them from turning). The longer the wrench, the more torque that can be applied. Wrench ends are available in two primary types, open-end and box-end. A box-end wrench encloses the bolt head and is useful when more torque is needed or to maintain contact in difficult to reach locations. An open-end wrench is designed for speedily loosening easier to reach fasteners. Wrenches that feature one open and one box end are called combination wrenches and adjustable wrenches feature an open end with an adjustable width.
An air mass is a large body of air that has which of the following characteristics?
all of these
An air mass is a large body of air that has similar moisture (density) and temperature characteristics. A front is a transition zone between two air masses.
During continental drift, the drifting plates move across which of the following?
liquid mantle
The crust and the rigid lithosphere (upper mantle) is made up of approximately thirty separate plates. These plates more very slowly on the slightly more liquid mantle (asthenosphere) beneath them. This movement has resulted in continental drift which is the gradual movement of land masses across Earth's surface. Continental drift is a very slow process, occurring over hundreds of millions of years.
The dwarf planet Pluto is located where?
in the Kuiper Belt
The Kuiper Belt is similar to the asteroid belt but much larger. Extending beyond the orbit of Neptune, it contains objects composed mostly of frozen methane, ammonia, and water. Most notably, the Kuiper Belt is home to Pluto, a dwarf planet that, until a 2006 reclassification, was considered the ninth planet of the solar system.
