Mr. Elmo Norman, my elementary school principal, was the most nervous man I have ever met. He was a short, pudgy man, always ove

r-dressed. In fact, he didn't just wear his clothes--he hid inside them. His uniform consisted of a neatly pressed pin-striped suit, a thin black tie over a starched white shirt, and a pair of brightly polished brown Oxfords. His receding gray hair was always neatly trimmed, and his fat, wrinkled head always darted about like a radar blip on his neck. He paced the school hallways in a perpetual motion of twitching, fidgeting, and twiddling. In the space of a minute, he would wrinkle his little nose, scratch his plump chin, shrug his shoulders, straighten his tie, and glance at his watch, never once looking directly at the person he was with. As he spoke in his lackadaisical drawl, he would glance at the ceiling, inspect his knuckles, and check the floorboards for dust. When the conversation was over, he would dash back into his office like a frightened bunny, probably praying that he could lock himself in there forever. And for all I know, he may still be hiding there in his office today.
b.  Underline OR highlight the words, phrases, or sentences that give clues to Mr. Elmo Norman’s CHARACTER    traits in the paragraph.
c.  What is the POINT OF VIEW that this story is being told from?  
d.  HOW do you KNOW that it is this type of point of view?

6 - 3x = 5x - 10x + 2 x=?
sesenic [268]

6-3x=5x-10x+2  

Add 5x and -10x and you get -5x

6 - 3x = -5x + 2 ( add -5 to the other side)

6+2x=2

now subtract 6 from both sides

2x = -4

divide both sides by 2 to get x by itself

x=-2

Read these sentences from Mandela’s “Inaugural Address.”
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

A.  He repeats short sentences to highlight the critical nature of the moment.

Here he uses short, clear sentences to highlight the critical nature of the moment. He doesn't use complicated phrases as he wants people to understand him and his beliefs. He doesn't want anyone to forget the past or the people who fought for justice, because they are the reason a change was made.
