Answer asap
fei yen is researching and analyzing the history of environmental laws. she reads this paragraph about the 1990 updates to the clean air act and makes the inference that some people feared the law would be too difficult to enact quickly. read the paragraph and then answer the question.

to achieve environmental gains within a reasonable timeframe at the lowest feasible cost, the new law will take hold in … stages, with most controls fully in effect by 2005. what, specifically, are some of these gains? emissions that cause acid rain (sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides) will be cut to roughly half of 1980 emission levels. more than thirty million tons of noxious air pollutants will be removed from the air each year. every part of the country finally will have means to attain healthy air on a realistic schedule. and the risk from toxic air emissions will be cut by three-fourths.

which evidence from the paragraph supports fei yen’s inference?

a. and the risk from toxic air emissions will be cut by three-fourths.

b. more than thirty million tons of noxious air pollutants will be removed from the air each year.

c. every part of the country finally will have means to attain healthy air on a realistic schedule.

d. emissions that cause acid rain (sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides) will be cut to roughly half of 1980 emission levels.

lemme see i dont think i know that one h

this is the answer , p = 1 + (1/10)x

step-by-step explanation:

we have,

at sea level pressure is 1 atmosphere (i.e at x =0, p0=1 atmosphere)

at depth 23 meters , pressure = 3.3 atmosphere

since the pressure increases at constant rate as the depth increases, so we can write a relation as:

p =p0 +   kx   , where p is the pressure  , p0 is the initial pressure, x is the depth and k is constant rate of increasing.

to find constant rate k, plug p = 3.3 , p0 = 1 and x= 23 meters

we get,

  3.3 = 1 + k * 23

k = 2.3 / 23   = 1/10

so we can write the function formula as:   p = 1 + (1/10)x

figurative language is a resource that fiction writers use to make better descriptions of what they want to write about or express. they can improve their stories, as they can elaborate more vivid and colorful sentences. this way, the reader will be able to have more detailed images in his/her mind.

places, objects, people and even feelings or emotions can be described with a lot of detail to metaphors, similes and personifications. making different kinds of comparisons to make a description more specific, as well as assigning human qualities to non-human objects (and vice-versa) can be very useful for science fiction writers.  

on the other hand, alliterations allow writers to elaborate more entertaining and creative sentences. it consists in using a sequence of words that start with the same consonant letter. they can be used to emphasize something important the writer wants to express, or just as a fun literary device.
