How have Human Beings Corrupted their Environment?
(5) I turned on my back and floated, looking up at the sky, nothing
around me but cool, clear Pacific, nothing in my eyes but long blue
space. It was as close as I ever got to cleanliness and freedom, as far as I
ever got from all the people. They had jerrybuilt the beaches from San Diego
to the Golden Gate, bulldozed superhighways through the
(10) mountains, cut down a thousand years of redwood growth, and built
an urban wilderness in the desert. They couldn't touch the ocean. They
poured their sewage into it, but it couldn't be tainted.
There was nothing wrong with Southern California that a rise in the
ocean level wouldn't cure. The sky was flat and empty, and the water was
(15) chilling me. I swam to the kelp-bed and plunged down through it. It
was cold and clammy like the bowels of fear. I came up gasping and
sprinted to shore with a barracuda terror nipping at my heels.
I was still chilly a half hour later, crossing the pass to Nopal Valley.
Even at its summit, the highway was wide and new, rebuilt with somebody's
(20) money. I could smell the source of the money when I slid down into the
valley on the other side. It stank like rotten eggs.
The oil wells from which the sulphur gas rose crowded the slopes on both
sides of the town. I could see them from the highway as I drove in: the
latticed triangles of the derricks where trees had grown, the oil-pumps
nodding and clanking where cattle had grazed. Since 'thirty-nine or 'forty, when
I had seen it last, the town had grown enormously, like a tumor.
25) What are the dominant images in lines 10-12?
A. Light and dark
B. Heat and Light
C. Terror and fear
D. Death and defeat
E. Ugliness and hopelessness

23. Find the exact value of cos(20) knowing that: *
(1 Point)
sin (0) = -2/2 270º < 0 < 360° how to solve
Answer:
[tex]\cos(2\theta) = 0[/tex]
Explanation:
Given
[tex]\sin(\theta) = -\frac{\sqrt 2}{2}[/tex]
[tex]270^o < \theta < 360^o[/tex]
Required
[tex]\cos(2\theta)[/tex]
Recall that:
[tex]\sin^2(\theta) + \cos^2(\theta) =1[/tex]
Substitute: [tex]\sin(\theta) = -\frac{\sqrt 2}{2}[/tex]
[tex](-\frac{\sqrt 2}{2})^2 + \cos^2(\theta) =1[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{2} + \cos^2(\theta) =1[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]\cos^2(\theta) =1-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\cos^2(\theta) =\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\cos(2\theta)[/tex] is calculated as:
[tex]\cos(2\theta) = \cos^2(\theta) - \sin^2(\theta)[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\cos(2\theta) = \frac{1}{2} - (-\frac{\sqrt 2}{2})^2[/tex]
[tex]\cos(2\theta) = \frac{1}{2} - \frac{2}{4}[/tex]
[tex]\cos(2\theta) = \frac{1}{2} - \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\cos(2\theta) = 0[/tex]

Describe political social or cultural change that took place in Rome during the early empire

When the industrial powers began to colonize African territories, the continent was divided, however, these new borders did not take into account the tribal traditions of the native African communities, so that several rival communities remained in the same colony causing violent confrontations between them. According to the above, the correct answer is D. Arbitrarily formed boundaries caused wars between rival tribes.

Describe history. What is history? How is history
constructed? How does this apply to Texas history?
Answer:
History can describe as the the whole series of past events connected with someone or something.
History is the study of change over time, and it covers all aspects of human society.
History is made up of persons who lived in a certain time in the past.
The recorded history of Texas begins with the arrival of the first Spanish conquistadors in the region of North America now known as Texas in 1519, who found the region occupied by numerous Native American tribes. The name Texas derives from táyshaʼ, a word in the Caddoan language of the Hasinai, which means "friends" or "allies."[1][2][3][4] Native Americans' ancestors had been in what is now Texas, more than 10,000 years ago as evidenced by the discovery of the remains of prehistoric Leanderthal Lady.
Answer:
History is the past of many occuring events.
History is constructed using a timeline of events that had happened.
This applies to Texas history because there are events that took place and are related to Texas in the past.
Hope this answers your question!

J)
blend of public and private ownership and some government interference
K)
private ownership and limited government interference
public ownership and total government interference
L)Public ownership and limited government interference
M)
trading goods and services for other necessities you need
Answer:
K) private ownership and limited government interference.
Explanation:
An economy is a function of how money, means of production and resources (raw materials) are carefully used to facilitate the demands and supply of goods and services to meet the unending needs or requirements of the consumers.
Basically, there are four (4) main types of economy and these are;
I. Mixed economy.
II. Free-enterprise (capitalist) economy.
III. Traditional economy.
IV. Command economy.
A free-enterprise economy also referred to as capitalism or free market can be defined as a type of economy in which prices, products and services are being determined by the market rather than the government. Thus, a free-enterprise economy is devoid (free) of government regulations, interference or control because the market (enterprises) are the ones who are saddled with the responsibility of determining the market forces.
Simply stated, a free-enterprise system is a type of economy that is completely driven by demand and supply of goods and services.
Hence, a capitalist or free enterprise economy is often characterized by private ownership and limited government interference.

Explain why Indians pushed for independence from Britain and the methods they used to achieve it.
Answer:
The British Viceroy and his Council ruled the country. These educated Indians wanted the opportunity to reach the top jobs in the civil service. They also wanted India to have its own government, in which men like them would become MPs. The Indian National Congress first set out these ideas in 1885.
India won its freedom from British colonial rule in 1947, after many decades of struggle. Mohandas Gandhi, known as Mahatma Gandhi, joined the fight in 1914 and led the country to independence, using his method of nonviolent protest known as satyagraha
