First of all, find how many sentences are in 17 pages. If in one page there are 120 sentences, in 17...

17*120 = 2040 sentences.

Now, she can read 14 sentences in one minute, how many minutes to read 2040 sentences?

2040 : 14 = 145,71 minutes (about 146 mins).

So, in an hour there are 60 minutes

146 : 60 = 2,42 hours (about 2,5)

But you can also convert 145,71 mins = 2 hours and 25 mins.

Let's start off by finding how many sentences Jolie has left to read. We know that there are 120 sentences on a page and she has 17 pages left.
120*17=2040
She has 2040 sentences left to read.
Now, let's calculate how many hours it will take her to finish her reading. We know she reads 14 sentences in a minute and there are 60 minutes in an hour. 
14*60=840
She will read 840 sentences in an hour.
Now, we will divide 2040 by 840 to find how many hours it will take for her to finish reading.
2040/840= 2.43
It will take Jolie approximately 2.43 hours to finish her reading.

creativ13 [48]
The best answer here is the last one, that he interacts easily with both his superiors and the drivers. In the excerpt, we see how the narrator is able to talk with the officers with ease and then how he goes to the drivers with that same ease.

If we look at the other answers, we can see that they don't work. The first one doesn't make much sense as the narrator shows no preference towards either set of people. The second choice makes no sense because the narrator does not ask the officers for cigarettes. The third choice also does not make sense because there is no hint of derision from the narrator to the officers or drivers.

PLEASE HELP I'LL GIVE THE BRAINLEST

The contact with poetry in the student's life can happen in several ways, through reading, music and various forms of entertainment. This is because poetry is comprehensive and can take different forms in several different media.

Unfortunately, as the student progresses academically, the contact with poetry may become less and less, due to the emergence of new interests, but it is important that this contact is maintained and stimulated because of all the benefits and positive impacts that can promote in the student's life.

Through poetry, the student's ability to interpret text is strengthened, since poetry presents abstract and subjective concepts that must be interpreted and discussed. In this way, the student can develop a quick and complete reasoning, capable of provoking a firm understanding of difficult concepts and information.

This capacity can be extended to all areas of the student's life, optimizing his academic and even professional, social, economic and political capacity.

Thus, we can affirm that poetry is an efficient and accessible way to promote the brain and academic stimulation of the student, fearing profound impacts on academic life.

iren2701 [21]

The author wants readers to understand why Earhart would go on such a dangerous trip.

Answer: Option B.

Explanation:

‘Earhart’s Flight into Yesterday’ is an excellent book about Amelia Earhart’s flying experiences by Caption Laurance. After reading the excerpt, one can figure out that the author want readers to understand the reason behind Earhart going on such a dangerous trip.

It was not that Earhart wanted to achieve fame and success. Rather she wanted to change the perspective of the people regarding women. She wanted to show the world that even women are capable enough to fly an aircraft. And which is why she decided to fly over the Pacific. She was the one who set many records that not even men were capable of.
