Answer:

The process of looking up unfamiliar words increases Ron's a. lexicon.

Explanation:

Lexicon is a synonym for vocabulary, that is, all the words used by a person. When someone like Ron looks up unfamiliar words, he is enhancing, increasing, his vocabulary - the number of words he understands and is, therefore, able to use. Now that he knows what "wanderlust" means, that word has become a part of Ron's lexicon.

Answer:

C. A journey that presents many challenges

Explanation:

Okay, it's an unpaved road, according to my ELA teacher, that symbolizes a long, harsh journey. You know, cause there's the saying "you got a hard road ahead of you" or something like that. Meaning that you have a hard journey ahead of you. And besides, none of the other ones make sense. If this happens to be wrong, I'm really sorry, let me know so I can fix it.

hope this helps:)

You are designing a skateboard ramp with a base of 12 meters long and 4 meters high. how long in feet is the incline of the ramp
Darina [25.2K]
To answer this question you need to use the Pythagorean theorem. First you substitute the values for a and b. Usually, the value of c represents the hypotenuse in this case c represents the incline of the ramp. As you can see in the following calculations we set a to be the base of the ramp while b is the height of the ram. 

a^2+b^2=c^2 \\ c= \sqrt{12^2+4^2} \\ c= \sqrt{160} \\ c=3.556

We get that the incline of the ramp is about 3.556 meters however we can round it up to be 4 meters. The final answer needs to be given in feet, and 1 meters is 3.28 feet.  Therefore to get the answer in feet we do the following calculations:
4 meter * \frac{3.28 ft}{1 meter} = 13.12 feet

Therefore the ramp incline should be 13.12 feet.
