North America physical map showing the following elevations, sea level to 649 feet, 650 to 1649 feet, 1650 to 3249 feet, 3250 to 6549 feet, and 6500 feet and higher. The east coast and much of the South, up through the lower Mississippi River valley, is sea level to 649 feet. The upper Mississippi River and Ohio River valleys are 650 to 1649 feet. The Appalachian Mountains are 650 to 3249 feet. Moving west from the Mississippi, elevation steadily rises to the Rocky Mountains, from 3250 to 6500 feet. The elevation remains largely at 1650 feet and higher west of the Rockies, with a sharp drop at the Pacific Ocean. © 2012 The Exploration Company Lewis and Clark traveled from St. Louis, which is beside the Mississippi River. Which of the following correctly describes the land they saw as they traveled to the Pacific Northwest? Flat and low around the Mississippi River, with a sharp and sudden rise to the Rocky Mountains, tapering off slowly to the ocean Flat and low around the Mississippi River, gradually rising to the Rocky Mountains, then tapering off quickly to the ocean Flat but high around the Mississippi River, with a sharp and sudden rise to the Rocky Mountains, dropping off suddenly to the ocean Flat but high around the Mississippi River, quickly rising to the Rocky Mountains, then tapering off slowly to the ocean

thing is, i'm afraid, you can't.

the most you can do is log out and never log in again.

8 - (2a + 7) = a + 40     distribute/multiply - into (2a + 7)

8 - 2a - 7 = a + 40

1 - 2a = a + 40       add 2a on both sides

1 = 3a + 40         subtract 40 on both sides

-39 = 3a       divide 3 on both sides

-13 = a

[proof]

8 - (2a + 7) = a + 40

8 - (2(-13) + 7) = -13 + 40

8 - (-26 + 7) = 27

8 - (-19) = 27

8 + 19 = 27

27 = 27

explanati“there were many such dangers, in which the odds were all against them. their children were not as well as they had been at home; but how could they know that there was no sewer to their house, and that the drainage of fifteen years was in a cesspool under it? how could they know that the pale-blue milk that they bought around the corner was watered, and doctored with formaldehyde besides? when the children were not well at home, teta elzbieta would gather herbs and cure them; now she was obliged to go to the drugstore and buy extracts–and how was she to know that they were all adulterated? how could they find out that their tea and coffee, their sugar and flour, had been doctored; that their canned peas had been colored with copper salts, and their fruit jams with aniline dyes? and even if they had known it, what good would it have done them, since there was no place within miles of them where any other sort was to be had? the bitter winter was coming, and they had to save money to get more clothing and bedding; but it would not matter in the least how much they saved, they could not get anything to keep them warm. all the clothing that was to be had in the stores was made of cotton and shoddy, which is made by tearing old clothes to pieces and weaving the fiber again. if they paid higher prices, they might get frills and fanciness, or be cheated; but genuine quality they could not obtain for love nor moneyon:
