Why is the equator region the hottest part of Earth’s surface? The equator region has the widest diameter.

The sun shines directly on the equator region.

The rays of the sun hit the equator region at an angle.

The equator region is closest to the sun.

 The sun shines directly on the equator region.

Step-by-step explanation: Ultimately, the temperature in an area depends on the amount of the Sun's energy reaching the surface in that area. The amount of solar energy in a given area is greater at the equator than in an equal area at the poles, which is why the equator temperature is warmer than the polar temperatures. Therefore it is B

first anwser choice.

step-by-step explanation:

the greater/less or equal to symbol (> or < with the line at the bottom) is a closed/filled in circle.

-5c + 2 _< _27

subtract from both sides by 2

-5c _< _ 27

divide both sides by -5

c _< _ 5.4

flip the inequality sign

c _> _5.4

the only possible answer that would match the simplified inequality is the first answer choice

17 1/3
