Answer:
The best way to revise the sentence is:
D. To raise money for uniforms, members of the volleyball team will hold a car wash on Saturday.
Explanation:
<u>The original sentence is not really defective, it is only missing a piece of information concerning when the car wash will be held. The best way to add it is to include it at the end of the sentence, as is done in letter D. To raise money for uniforms, members of the volleyball team will hold a car wash on Saturday.</u>
Let's take a look at the other options to understand why they are not usable.
Letter A does begin with the subject of the sentence, but interrupts it with extra information, preventing the sentence from being a direct one. It sounds really confusing. Letter B adds the "on Saturday" information at a strange place, also interrupting the direct flow of the sentence. Letter C puts the "on Saturday" information right at the beginning. It's not that this can't be done. But, in this case, a comma should be added after it. Nevertheless, it makes the introduction of the sentence too long, which is not a good thing.
The answer is between B and D.
The 300 villages in the Lottery are blindly obedient to a tradition that is years and years old. Some things have been dropped and others added and nobody quite knows why.
The beginning of June 28 is just as serene. There are all sorts of interpretations, but nothing hides Jackson's anger about blind tradition that would even sacrifice young children and accept it as being a "good sport."
Tilly is the only one who is justifiably upset. The stones are going to be about her and they will kill her. Being stoned in the Bible was a slow painful process. You weren't killed by being hit. You died by suffocation because the weight of the stones eventually was greater than what the lungs could push up and let down so you could continue breathing.
This stoning is less biological and more what you think stoning should accomplish -- death by loss of blood. It is a horrible death. Everyone seems to take it for granted -- everyone but Tilly who had to endure it.
If you were writing an essay, you could easily defend A, B and D. My choice is D, but I wouldn't discount B at all.
Answer:
I wanna say d but I'm not 100% sure correct me if I'm wrong
Answer:
Didn't Beowulf cut off Grendel's arm and he ended up bleeding out.
Everything else seems right.
Explanation:
64^(-1/3)
First step: Remove the negative sign of the exponent by switching the numerator and denominator.
(1/64)^1/3
When an exponent is in a fraction form, the numerator is the power the base will be raised to while the denominator is the root.
Second step: find the cube root.
(∛1/64)^1
(∛1/∛64)^1
Third: raise to the power.
(1/4)^1
1/4 or 0.25
64 to the negative 1 third power is 1 OVER 4.
