Im assuming you're talking about the short story The Bet by Anton Chekhov. so in the bet the banker was certain the young man would not be able to last long. in getting caught up in the argument the banker made a bet with the young man saying he couldn't last 5 years for two million. he was certain the young man wouldn't last long and would prove his point that much more.

Which sources are appropriate secondary sources for researching access to water in the future? Check all that apply.
g100num [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

A. a nonfiction book about natural resources

D. an article about water access in an academic journal

E. an article in a major newspaper making predictions about water access

(Photo for proof at the bottom.)

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

A secondary source provides an outside perspective that interprets or analyzes an event or topic, and are created by people who did not have a first-hand experience on the topic.

A notebook and a speech are not secondary sources because they are created by someone who has a first-hand experience on the topic. Non-fiction books and articles are secondary sources since they are written by someone who only has knowledge on the topic, and hasn't actually experienced the topic.

Here's a photo of Edge, good luck.

Every summer, my dad teaches a science class about sea<br> turtles in the atlantic ocean.
NemiM [27]

Answer: Every summer, my dad teaches a science class about Sea Turtles in the Atlantic Ocean

Explanation:

The word <em>every</em> should be capitalized because it is the first word in the sentence and the first word is always capitalized.

<em>Dad </em>should not be capitalized as it comes after a possessive pronoun being <em>my</em>.

<em>Sea Turtles</em> as well as the <em>Atlantic Ocean</em> should be capitalized as you are referring to them directly.
