Answer:

A train will travel 12 miles in 15 minutes.

Explanation:

Let’s say the unknown minutes is x.

16 miles divided by 12 miles equals to 20 minutes divided by X, the unknown.  

Here is the solution;

16 miles        20 minutes

………………  = …………………

12 miles             x

So, 16 miles multiplied by x will give 16x =20 minutes multiplied by 12 miles which is 240.

Now, 16x =240 will give x=240

                                         …………

                                             16

Giving us a final answer of 15 minutes .

Therefore, it will take a train 15 minutes to travel 12 miles.

Which of the following sentences contain an adverb clause?
Jlenok [28]
The correct answer is:  [A]:  
________________________________________________________
                   "People will not get ahead if they do not study." 
________________________________________________________
Explanation:
________________________________________________________
Note that one (1) feature of an "adverb clause" is that an "adverb clause" must begin with a "subordinating conjunction".
________________________________________________________
The only answer choices provided that meet this criterion are:
________________________________________________________
 Choice:  [A]:  "People will not get ahead if they do not study." 

 In this sentence, there is a "subordinating conjunction"— which is—" if ".
________________________________________________________
Choice:  [C]:  " Because of the defensive driving lessons, I am probably a better driving today ".

In this sentence, there is a "subordinating conjunction"
— which is—"Because" .
________________________________________________________
Note the other criteria for "adverb clauses" — as follows:
________________________________________________________
1)  Adverb clauses are "modifiers". 

2)  Adverb clauses contain both a subject AND a verb.

3)  Adverb clauses, on their own, do not form complete sentences.
_______________________________________________________
Consider:  Choice:  [C]:  
_______________________________________________________
         "Because of the defensive driving lessons, I am probably a better driving today."
 
     →  Note:  Since the particular clause beings with the "subordinating conjunction—"Because" (in this case) — consider the phrase:
_______________________________________________________
    "Because of the defense driving lessons" ; 

→  This is NOT an "adverb clause".  An "adverb clause" must contain BOTH  a "noun" AND a "verb"— and this particular clause does NOT contain a "verb".

Rule out "Choice: [C] " .
___________________________________________________________
Consider:
 
"Choice:  [A]:  "People will not get ahead if they do not study." 

   →  <u>Note</u>:  Since the particular clause beings with the "subordinating conjunction"—" if " (in this case) — consider the phrase:
_______________________________________________________
     " if they do not study ." 
_______________________________________________________

→  Note the following:
_______________________________________________________
      1)  This clause contains BOTH a "noun" —which is:  "they" (a subject pronoun referring to "people");  AND a "verb" —which is: "do [not] study" .

      2)  This clause modifies "people" . 
 
      3)  This clause is a NOT a sentence if it stands alone.
___________________________________________________________
Thus;  this very answer choice:  "Answer choice:  [A]:
__________________________________________________________
       →    "People will not get ahead if they do not study." 
__________________________________________________________
               →  is the only sentence — 
                     (among the answer choices provided) — 
                     that:   1)   is an "adverb clause" ; AND:               
                     that:   2)    is the correct answer.
