Answer:
by getting a job and working hard to earn money.
Hi, you've asked an incomplete question. The remaining part of the question reads;
the first paragraph;
<em>I spent my teens and much of my twenties collecting printed rejections. Early on, my mother lost $61.20—a reading fee charged by a so-called agent to look at one of my unpublished stories. No one had told us that agents weren’t supposed to get any money upfront, weren’t supposed to be paid until they sold your work. Then they were to take ten percent of whatever the work earned. Ignorance is expensive. That $61.20 was more money back then than my mother paid for a month’s rent.</em>
The last sentence of the first paragraph (“That . . . month’s rent”) primarily serves to
A. <em>justify an action by invoking an ethical principle</em>
B. clarify a point by defining an ambiguous term
C. show how anecdotal evidence supports a claim
<em>D. provide meaningful context for a revealing statistic</em>
<em>E. demonstrate that a common practice has harmful effect</em>
Answer:
<u><em>D. provide a meaningful context for a revealing statistic</em></u>
Explanation:
By saying, "<em>That $61.20 was more money back then than my mother paid for a month’s rent" </em>the narrator had revealed a very interesting statistic about the value of money back then.
In other words, the context surrounding the statement helps the average reader quickly understand that a month's rent used to be <em>lesser</em> than $61.20; very interesting statistics at that.
Answer:
a. The legislature can override Supreme Court decisions, but the executive branch cannot.
Explanation:
Judicial review in combination with the nature of Supreme Court tenure tends to lead to controversy, primarily about the Court’s legitimacy because while the legislature can override Supreme Court decisions, the executive branch cannot.
This brings about controversy because the legislature can bring bills that counteract and override Supreme Court decisions.
Answer:
My car payment is higher than my discretionary spending.
Explanation:
If the car payment is going up, then the car payment may be higher than your discretionary spending. Discretionary spending is money that the government has implemented through an appropriations bill. This money is given to participents based on the funding available and the number of recipients eligible to receive funding.
