Answer:
The correct answer is B. Contain generalizations and contractions.
Step-by-step explanation:
A generalization occurs when a specific idea is applied to a general category, in simple terms it occurs if a person states something always occur because this person saw it once. In this case, generalization occurs as this person affirms all stars are too far away and thus it will take a long time to get to those stars, however not all stars are as far away as this person believes and this does not mean it will take a long time to get there as new technology can be created, thus, this statement is not true and need revision. On the other hand, contractions refers to the process of shortening words by putting them together, this can be seen in "couldn't" ( could + not) and "they're" (they + are), contradictions are not correct as they should not be used in formal language and be avoided, thus, contradictions also need to be revised.

Step-by-step explanation:
jacob ironed for 4 hours and ayden for 8 hours
She worked as a carpenter for 12 hours and as a blacksmith for 18 hours.
Assuming you mean she earned $20 as a carpenter and $25 as a blacksmith per hour, with a total of 30 hours for $690,
let c represent carpenter hours and b for blacksmith hours.
20c + 25b = 690
c + b = 30
Subtract b from each side so that c = 30 - b
Plug this value into the first equation
20(30 - b) + 25b = 690
600 - 20b + 25b = 690
600 + 5b = 690
5b = 90
b = 18
To find c, plug this value of b into the other equation
c + 18 = 30
c = 12
