Phishco runs a number of farms in the arid province of nufa, depending largely on the irrigation. now, as a part of a plan to efficiently increase the farms' total production, it plans to drill down to an aquifer containing warm, slightly salty water that will be used to raise fish in ponds. the water from the ponds will later be used to supplement piped-in irrigation water for phishco's vegetable fields, and the ponds and accompanying vegetation should reduce the heat in the area of the farms.
which of the following would, if true, most strongly suggest that the plan, if implemented, would increase the overall efficiency of phishco's farms?
(a) most of the vegetation to be placed around the ponds is native to nufa.
(b) fish raised on phishco's farms are likely to be saleable in the nearest urban areas.
(c) organic waste from fish in the pond water will to fertilize fields where it is used for irrigation.
(d) the govt of nufa will to arrange loan financing to partially cover the costs of drilling.
(e) ponds will be located on low-lying land now partially occupied by grain crops.

In this case,from the given comprehension we are required to improve the efficiency of PhishCo's farms. Since, we are given that PhishCo runs a number of farms depending largely on the irrigation.

Also in order to increase efficiency and production, it plans to drill down to an aquifer containing warm, slightly salty water that will be used to raise fish in ponds. Further using this water to irrigate vegetable fields.

Therefore, from the given options, it can be clearly stated that Organic waste from fish in the pond water will help to fertilize fields where it is used for irrigation, thus increasing the overall efficiency.

i.e. Option (c) most strongly suggest that the plan, if implemented, would increase the overall efficiency of PhishCo's farms

a manufacturer of printed circuit boards uses exponential smoothing with trend to forecast monthly demand of its product. at the end of december, the company wishes to forecast sales for january. the estimate of trend through november has been 200 additional boards sold per month. average sales have been around 1000 units per month. the demand for december was 1100 units. the company uses α = 0.20 and β = 0.10. make a forecast including trend for the month of january.

two years ago, when picking flowers in the mountains back of yosemite valley, i found a book. it was blotted and storm-beaten; all of its outer pages were mealy and crumbly. the paper seemed to dissolve like the snow beneath which it had been buried, however; many of the inner pages were well preserved. and although all were more or less stained and torn, whole chapters were easily readable. this is the condition of the great open book of yosemite glaciers today; its granite pages have been torn and blurred by the same storms that wasted the castaway book.
