What are two ways to determine if a source is reliable?

English
1 answer:
exis [7]3 years ago
6 0

1) Accuracy. Verify the information you already know against the information found in the source. Look also for disclaimers as to the accuracy of the content. You may also want to double-check the information against a source that you already know is trustworthy. Even though a source may use technical language, the content may be misleading.

2) Authority. Make sure the source is written by a trustworthy author and/or institution. If you are using a webpage, you can usually identify the owner/publisher by the URL, or check for a copyright statement near the bottom of the page. Make sure the author has the proper credentials on the subject matter. Also, determine if the source is biased. For example, if it is medical information from a drug company, that company will provide information in support of its product. Be aware of the objectivity of the author and his/her viewpoints.

How can an insurance company make a profit by taking in premiums and making payouts?
Misha Larkins [42]
The value of the premiums the company takes in is higher than the value of the payouts it makes.

The insurance company always has a collection of premium. They will pool these premiums and invest it to other investments that have guaranteed payouts with the highest interest earned. In the event of payout, all revenue earned net of the amount paid is the profit of the insurance company.

Using context clues, what is the best answer for the phrase "comes to with a start"?
alina1380 [7]
I would say wakes up as the phrase "come to" can mean waking up and "start" means beginning. So the phrase can mean starting to wake up, that's just my guess though.
