Answer:

The girl's height is more than the 78 percent of the 16 year old girl

and,

the girl's weight is more than the 48% of the 16 years old girl

Explanation:

Given:

the height= 66 inches

weight of the girl =  118 pounds

the girl's percentile of weight = 48

the girl's percentile of height = 78

The percentile is the value below which percentage of the other observations are observed.

this means,

that the girl's height is more than the 78 percent of the 16 year old girl

and,

the girl's weight is more than the 48% of the 16 years old girl

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

It is recess and the sun is shining! Stefanie and Latisha can hardly keep from running as their class walks in a line to the playground. The two girls have been friends since kindergarten. Both athletic and social, together they have been the leaders among their peers. They usually decide recess activities and other girls quickly follow; however, things seem to be changing in the fourth grade. Latisha is spending more time with another girl, Thanh, as they now play on the same soccer team together. They are even joining the boys in their soccer games on the fi eld. Stefanie tries to join in but the boys will not pass her the ball and she is left standing on the sidelines. She really does not like the boys. Stephanie tries to join the other girls from their class but their friendship “clubs” are already formed and she thinks that they are not willing to include new members. Stefanie goes home that night and cries to her mother. She tells her that everyone, including her teacher, is mean.

Let’s Discuss

• Are the feelings that Stefanie is articulating normal or typical? Why or why not?

• How might you explain Stefanie’s feelings about friendships?

• How might you explain Stefanie’s assessment of other people’s actions?

• How might you explain Stefanie’s feelings about gendered friendships?

In "Grass," what attitude does the grass express toward the dead?
Ainat [17]
"Grass" is actually a poem that was written by Carl Sandburg. This is a poem in which he has published right after the World War I which is in the year 1918. Based on this poem, you can sense an unforgiving tone in it. Therefore, I can say that the attitude that the author expresses is "anger". Hope this answer helps.
