Meteorology A Weather forecaster uses a barometer to measure air pressure and make weather predictions. Suppose a standard mercury barometer reads 29.8 in. The mercury rises 0.02 in. And then false 0.09 in . The mercury falls again 0.18 in. Before rising 0.07 in. What does the word "rise" suggest? What does the word "fall" suggest?

rise : atmospheric pressure increases

fall : atmospheric pressure decreases

Step-by-step explanation:

In the context, it is given that a weather forecaster takes the help of the barometer to check the air pressure and predicts the weather. The column of mercury level in the barometer shows a rise or fall in the glass tube as the weight of the atmosphere falling on the mercury surface changes.

Here it is given that the mercury rises for 0.02 in, then it falls 0.09 in,  it then rises by 0.07 in and then again falls by 0.18 in. The word "rise" here shows that the weight of the atmosphere is more. In other words, increase in atmospheric pressure increases the level of mercury in the glass tube and the decrease in or "fall" in the mercury level shows the drop in atmospheric pressure.

i can you with this sweetie!

step-by-step explanation:

36 girls

step-by-step explanation:

the 48 boys is 4 parts of the ratio

divide 48 by 4 to obtain one part of the ratio

= 12 ← 1 part of the ratio

3 parts = 3 × 12 = 36 ← number of girls
