If mountains rose by 1 mm/yr, how high would they be (in meters) after 1,000 years? 10 million years? 50 million years?

a)after 1,000 years?

1 meter

b) 10 million years?

10,000 meters

c) 50 million years?

50,000 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told in the question that mountains rise 1 mm per year.

a) After 1000 years

1 year = 1 mm

1000 years =

Cross Multiply

1000 × 1 mm

= 1000mm

Converting to meters

1 mm = 0.001 m

1000 mm =

1000 × 0.001m

= 1 meter

b) After 10 million (10,000,000) years

1 year = 1 mm

10000000years =

Cross Multiply

10000000 × 1 mm

= 10,000,000mm

Converting to meters

1 mm = 0.001 m

10,000,000mm =

10,000,000 × 0.001m

= 10,000 meters

c) After 50 million years(50,000,000)

After 50,000,000 years

1 year = 1 mm

50,000,000years =

Cross Multiply

50,000,000 × 1 mm

= 50,000,000mm

Converting to meters

1 mm = 0.001 m

50,000,000mm =

50,000,000 × 0.001m

= 50,000 meters

after going and makeing graphs i would go with a,

there is nothing that is matches the graph. if there was i would show you. but therefore my answer is a.

hope i
