<u>2. $5,000</u>
Explanation:
1. For cost per person:
First, sum up all the percentage cost;
Banquet selling price=$20
a. Sales tax=5% of banquet price= 5/100 *20= $1
b. 15 percent gratuity charge=15/100 *20= $3
c. 5 percent over/under policy=5/100 *20=$1
Total cost =$5
2. For guaranteed 1000 persons:
Banquet selling price= $20 *1000= $20,000
a. Sales tax=5% of banquet price= 5/100 *20= $1000
b. 15 percent gratuity charge=15/100 *20= $3000
c. 5 percent over/under policy=5/100 *20=$1000
Total cost =$5000
Children learn a lot within the first nine years of their life, in fact, our brains are still in development until about the age of 26! So it is very important to get those skills early on in life while the brain is still really developing (around ages 0-9 and even still till the age of 26)
Encourage children to read and pronounce things clearly. Have them listen to fun books on cd. If your child is a bit older try the Harry Potter series, or if they are younger try something like, the Chronicles of Narnia, the Boxcar Children, or even Beatrix Potter if they are in to animals. If younger still, read aloud books like from Doctor Seuss, or the fun and entertaining; The Very Hungry Caterpillar.
Perhaps have them take a class on a foreign language, usually Spanish is a good one to start with. And if all else fails, take them in to a doctor who can advise and help a child in other ways than these. Hope this helps!
Synonyms help us connect unknown words with known words. For example, one may not know the meaning of the word "nefarious" when used in this context: "The offense was more nefarious than previously thought." If we replace "nefarious" with "evil" or "wretched" the meaning is more comprehensible to those who don't know the meaning of "nefarious": The offense was more evil (wretched) than previously thought."
I hope this helps, I used nefarious as a somewhat uncommon term to better illustrate my point, and to explain why we use synonyms to learn new words. Simply put, synonyms bridge us to the unknown using the known as solid ground build from.
