Answer:

Explanation:

Anita Desai uses both flash-forward and flashback effectively to show shifts in time in the story.

Here is an example of flashback from the story:

Nothing more wonderful had ever happened to him than being taken out by an uncle and bought a whole slab of chocolate all to himself, or being flung into the soda man’s pony cart and driven up to the gate by the friendly driver with the red beard and pointed ears.

Here is an example of flash-forward in the story:

He contemplated slipping out of the shed and into the fray. He wondered if it would not be better to be captured by Raghu and be returned to the milling crowd as long as he could be in the sun, the light, the free spaces of the garden, and the familiarity of his brothers, sisters, and cousins. It would be evening soon. Their games would become legitimate. The parents would sit out on the lawn on cane basket chairs and watch them as they tore around the garden or gathered in knots to share a loot of mulberries or black, teeth-splitting jamun from the garden trees. The gardener would fix the hosepipe to the water tap, and water would fall lavishly through the air to the ground, soaking the dry yellow grass and the red gravel and arousing the sweet, the intoxicating scent of water on dry earth—that loveliest scent in the world. Ravi sniffed for a whiff of it. He half-rose from the bathtub, then heard the despairing scream of one of the girls as Raghu bore down upon her.

(I) handed (my) flowers to (her) in front of (everyone). Which underlined pronoun functions as an adjective in the sentence?
Contact [7]
The answer is my. It is "describing" the flowers and saying that the flowers are mine. 
I, her, and everyone are pronouns that function as a noun phrase. They do/receive the action, while my is "describing" the flowers.

Answer:

30 dollars is the first answer, the second one is explained bellow.

Explanation:

If she earns $12 per 2 hours and $18 per three, it means Theresa receives six dollars per working hour.

The formula is this one:

Y is found when you multiple x (the amount of hours she spends working) times the hourly waive she is given. So, the formula would be y=(a) (x) where y is the total (30 dollars) and a is 6 and x the hours spent at work, 5, giving 30 as a result.
