Question

the following chart presents the number of new and abandoned hazardous waste sites found in various regions in the united states by the 1990s. us hazardous waste sites by region based on this data, in which four regions would you advise someone to live? which would be the safest for someone to live? a. se central, sw central, mountain, and new england b. mid - atlantic, ne central, nw central, and s. atlantic c. mid - atlantic, ne central, s. atlantic, and pacific d. nw central, new england, pacific, and s. atlantic

Explanation:

Answer:

To determine the safest regions to live in based on the number of hazardous - waste sites, we should choose the regions with the fewest number of new and abandoned hazardous - waste sites. Looking at the bar chart (not shown here in detail but based on the principle of minimizing exposure to hazardous waste), we assume that the regions with the shortest bars are the safest. Without seeing the actual bar heights for each region, we cannot give a definite answer. But if we assume that the regions with the lowest number of sites are the safest, we need to analyze the chart. Since no data about the bar - heights for each region is provided in text form, we cannot solve this problem. Please provide more details about the bar - heights for each region in the chart.
