This Mystery Rocks/ By Cyntha Schlagel
The Drifting Rocks are a strange phenomenon still unexplained by science. Located in Death Valley, California, the rocks sit on hot, flat ground. Unlike normal rocks, they have trails etched
behind them as if they have traveled across the sand. "some trails are only a few feet. "some trails are over a half a mile long. "Each trail is as baffling as the next.
The variety of rock movement has baffled scientists for decades. "Some rocks seem to roll as they move forward. "Some take unexplainable routes, 10Large ones have traveled past small ones
that have stayed still. 11Some scientists suggest that the rocks are pushed by wind, 12 others believe they slide on small amounts of Ice or mud. Iso far, research has not confirmed any theory.
Which choice best describes how the author organized Information? (4 points)
Cause and effect
Chronological order
Fact by fact
Problem-solution

Fact by fact

Explanation:

Depending on the type of information a text contains, it will be organized in a certain way. The organization of the given passage can be defined as fact-by-fact. Here, we have a list of facts - what the drifting rocks are, where they are located, how much they move, what the scientists think.

Cause and effect organization requires a causal relationship to be present. This means that at least two events need to be described, out of which one (cause) causes the other (effect).

Chronological order refers to the arrangement of events in the order they took place.

Problem-solution organization requires for a problem and its solution to be present.

Based on this information, we can see that the third option is the correct one.

substitute y = 2x - 4 to x + 2y = 12:

x + 2(2x - 4) = 12     use distributive property

x + (2)(2x) + () = 12

x + 4x - 8 = 12     add 8 to both sides

5x = 20     divide both sides by 5

x = 4

put the value of x to the first equation:

y = 2(4) - 4

y = 8 - 4

y = 4
