100 points plz , my life depends on it the movement of tectonic plates in two locations is described below: location a: tectonic plates sliding in opposite directions past each other location b: tectonic plates move apart under the ocean which statement is most likely correct? mountains may form in both locations. there is no chance of earthquakes in the two locations. new land may form in location b but not in location a. volcanic eruptions may occur in location a but not in location b.

New land is the anwser

The answer is B, new land may form in location b but not location a

Explanation:

When 2 plates move apart (divergent boundary) magma seeps through and hardens, creating new land. Location a describes a transform boundary. New land cannot be created here because no magma will be exposed.

9.9 years

a = p(1 + rt) . . account balance after time t at rate r starting with principal p

3000 = 2500(1 + 0.0202t) . . filling in the given numbers

1.2 = 1 + 0.0202t . . divide by 2500

0.2 = 0.0202t . . . subtract 1

0.2/0.0202 = t ≈ 9.901

it will take about 9.9 years for the account balance to reach $3000.
