An issue of a magazine contained the following statement.
dropping less than two inches per mile after emerging from the mountains, a river drains into the ocean. one day's discharge at its mouth, 1.2 trillion gallons, could supply all of country a's households for four months.
based on this statement, determine how much water an average household uses each month. assume that there are 100 million households in country a.

answer: yes, since the line has a steeper rate of change than the exponential the y-values will be greater and they will only intersect one time.

i believe it is d.) buddhism and e.) hinduism

answer: the proof is mentioned below.

step-by-step explanation:

since, given:   lines bc = ef

prove:   lines ac > ef

          statements                                           reason

1. bc=ef                                           1. given

2. ac= ab+bc                                 2. because b is the point between the  

                                                            line segment ac

3.   ac > bc                                       3. because if a line segment is equal to

                                                          the sum of two line segments then it is

                                                          always greater then each of these

                                                          individual line segments

4. ac > ef                                         4. by equality property.
