MEMORANDUM **

In these consolidated appeals, Raymond Militante Rebaya appeals in No. 09-50007 from the 48-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for transportation of illegal aliens and aiding and abetting, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1324(a)(l)(A)(ii), and (v)(II), and in No. 09-50034 from the 18-month consecutive sentence imposed following revocation of supervised release. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

In No. 09-50007, Rebaya contends the district court procedurally erred by (1) imposing a sentence without properly explaining and considering all of the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) sentencing factors, and (2) failing to justify and explain why an above-guidelines sentence was necessary. The record belies this contention. See United States v. Carty, 520 F.3d 984, 991-93 (9th Cir. 2008) (en banc); see also id. at 993 (appellate courts are to give due deference to the district court’s decision that the § 3553(a) factors, on a whole, justify the extent of the variance).

In No. 09-50034, Rebaya contends the district court procedurally erred by failing to provide an explanation for the 18-month sentence imposed following the revocation of his supervised release. This contention fails because an adequate explanation may be inferred from the “record as a whole.” See id. at 992.

AFFIRMED.
